Default I think I finally learning

I posted a hand a couple of weeks where I checked the river w/Ax high but felt I should have bet b/c my opponent could have had a better A high and folded. This was a similar situation but this time I bet the river. What do you guys think?

Party Poker 3.00/6.00 Hold'em <font color="#0000FF">(5 handed)</font> link

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, Button calls.

Flop: (7.33 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

Turn: (4.67 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

River: (6.67 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>

I like. Is this a river bet/fold or bet/call?

What reads do you have on your opponent?

To be honest, I really don't like this with KQ. I think that is pretty much the exact cutoff hand for most opponents where all better ones will call, and all worse ones will fold with a board like this.

Do you usually 3-bet pf with KQo after a limp and a raise?

5 handed? 100% of the time.

Wouldn't it be read dependent?

I'd say that line is at ace-high because many aces will fold here IMO. I like the river, I don't know if we can value 3-bet pf due to the risk of domination OOP.

No read on my opponent since he just sat down. The 3 bet pf is sometimes my standard play and sometimes not. It depends on how I'm running/feeling.

I'm really trying to focus on my turn and river play most b/c I think its the most interesting part of the hand

Villain could be raising pf w/ATs, A9s or even a higher Ax like AK, AQ. Do you really think he'll call w/those hands after my play throughout the hand
