Flopping two pair on monotone draw heavy board
 
First hand at table (this is my posted hand). Anyone playing this any different? Perhaps I should have bet slightly more on the flop(I thought I bet pot size, but apparently not)? I think I typically over bet these kinds of flops. This is just one of those multi-way pots that you obviously don't want to sink too much money in. Comments appreciated.

PokerRoom No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (8 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

Button ($57.60)
SB ($115.60)
BB ($123.30)
UTG ($160.00)
<font color="#C00000">UTG+1 ($80.45)</font>
MP1 ($144.90)
<font color="#C00000">Hero ($100.00)</font>
CO ($24.30)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls $1, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero checks, CO calls $1, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB checks.

Flop: ($6.50) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $5</font>, CO folds, BB folds, UTG+1 calls $5.

I think $8 is better here.

Turn: ($16.50) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG+1 checks, Hero checks.

I'm prepared to shutdown against a table of unknowns.

River: ($16.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $6</font>, UTG+1 calls $6.

Rivers checked to me though. It's either a small flush or a weak hand. Small value bet, or auto check? AJ, AQ paying me here no? I really don't know if someone is limping these hands or not of course.
Final Pot: $28.50

Bet the turn and fold to a raise.

Why do I want to put more money in here against an unknown who check/called a mutli-way limped pot? Not too many people will draw to an Ax here because I think most people know that 4 suit boards rarely pay off. I don't mind giving up the pot if another spade hits on the turn. I also don't mind using my position to push the river if another Q or J hits.
