Default Stars 2/4 JT flops top 2

I'd appreciate thoughts on all streets. My read on BB is that I hadn't seen him get out of line in 30 minutes at the table, nor had I seen him re-raise pre-flop.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (8 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

UTG ($338.80)
UTG+1 ($458.60)
MP1 ($567.75)
MP2 ($482.70)
<font color="#C00000">Hero ($497.80)</font>
Button ($86.75)
SB ($149.35)
<font color="#C00000">BB ($399.25)</font>

Preflop: Hero is CO with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls $4, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $12</font>, Button calls $12, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $36</font>, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls $24, Button calls $24.


Flop: ($114) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $52</font>, Hero calls $52, Button folds.

I decided to call rather than put in a raise to try to get the Button to throw in the rest of his chips, and to put pressure on BB on the turn.

Turn: ($218) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $12</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $82</font>, BB calls $70.

I hated this card. Is a bigger raise in order? It didn't really cross my mind, but does anyone just call here?

River: ($382) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $16</font>, Hero calls $16.

Thanks!

Edit: hand was at Stars rather than Party

suggestions- stop me if im completely wrong here. Your hand is ok.. but pf your first mistake is calling a reraise from a tight player- he is way ahead.

Secondly i think you need to raise the flop to 140-160$ ish.
If he has AK or Kings (which i think he has- you want him to pay to see the last 2 cards.)

I assume you lost this hand- but i would be interested to see what he had- My best bet is the cowboys. What would he be reraising with preflop/ most likely KK/AA/AK.

When the Queen came on the river i think you had put in too much to fold even though i doubt you were good.

the way to demolish the 2-4 NL on party is to fastplay your hands, people don't fold anything, i would have made it about 150 here to try to get him to push, i think he has AA or KK and hates the turn
