Re: QQ on Button
River raise is no good.
Villain's most likely holdings:
(i) a rivered flush
(ii) a King, which he slowplayed on the turn
(iii) a total bluff, which he's making a 'hail mary' attempt at as a last resort.
(iv) a badly played rivered straight
(v) a pair smaller than your QQ.
Only the 5th option is potentially calling down, and even that is very debatable. For the other possible holdings, villain is raising/calling with a better hand, or folding a worse one.
There is no value to raising this river. It's -EV.
