Default heads up NLHE hand with an ante

ante = 10
starting chips = 500
opponent = pretty loose, called 20 more with J4s preflop

I get dealt QQ
he checks, i check
flop = 2 9 10
i bet 20 he calls
turn = 8
i check, he checks
river = queen
i check, he bets 30, i raise to 90, he pushes all in
now im worried about a jack but i have a set of queens
what do i do here?

I hate the way you played the hand. The flop bet was your only reasonable play IMO. After you checkraise the river I don't think you can call a reraise unless you know your opponent very well. Would he be donkey enough to 3-bet for value a hand less than a straight here? Could he have any reason to believe you have less than a jack when you checkraise this river? Probably not. Fold.

ok new question
how would you play this hand?

I have T700 opponent has T300
ante of ten
i get dealt 6s6c

he checks, i bet 40 he raises all in to 240
so theres 300 in the pot and i hafta call 200 more
should i call?
it seems like i should fold unless i really think he has an underpair or Ax (ace little)
what do you think?

This really depends how aggressive your opponent has been in general. I'd lean towards calling against avg opponent.
