Default Bet/folding the river with a busted draw

I don't do this often.... thought I had a shot here.

Thoughts?

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $3.
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP calls, CO (poster) calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: (10 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP calls, CO folds, SB folds, BB folds.

Turn: (6 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

I think I may peel one off here. Normally, this is an easy fold, but isn't it possible for the villain to be raising a lower busted draw, such as QhJx, or something similar. I'm calling for information, and the possibility that my hand is good.

I don't think my hand is good very often. His raise makes me think he had a made hand on the flop, but was scared of hearts.

I thought I might be able to fold a weak pair with the bet.

And I think check/calling sucks here.

I usually c/c those rivers. I don't see anything you are beating except another busted draw which won't call a bet.

When you check and he bets, you're usually a pretty big underdog.

He already called multiple times on a pretty scary board.

If a weak pair called the turn he sure isn't folding a blank river.
