Default Deepish KQ Hand

Party 5+R. I was moved to this table recently, but played with Villain for a little while during the rebuy period. He seemed kind of unwilling to gamble then, would play passively with AK/AQ type hands until he was made. I wasn't really gambling it up, but I was raising big with a variety of hands, including most broadway. Any time I played strong after the flop, I showed down a big one. But that was during the rebuy period, haven't played with him since.

Final Pot: t9455

Regarding the small pre-flop raise: my objective was to avoid building a big pot out of position, and hopefully get it heads up or take down a multi-way pot if I make top pair. The river puts me behind one of the few hands I thought I might be ahead of on the flop: QJ.
