Re: KQo hand. Why am I always so afraid to bet the turn?

You should feel very comfortable betting this turn. If you do get raised, you have at the minimum 5 outs (gutshot - 10 + queens), so you can be comfortable that calling down is not very -EV.
If I had Q2o, THEN I might be uncomfortable betting this turn because it would be hard to call a raise. But I would bet it anyway.

I think you are right on the turn.
What about the river, given the way I played the hand?

The way u played it you gotta call man.
Im also of the opinion that that is not a bad turn for u, unless someone has a J. If u were ahead on the flop, ur still ahead on the turn...if u were behind, then well, you're still behind, but u have a gutshot and outs to a FH.
If he check raises this turn, ur getting about 8.5:1, so its an easy call with 6 outs (although if he has a str8 he's tying up one of your gutshots out and you are really drawing to a chop or 2 queens for a win.) -- still easy call. Bet.
