RAISE preflop!!! The raise is for value, you can easily raise QQ for value vs his range.

As played without raise preflop:
RAISE flop, no question about it. Raise it to 3-4 his bet size. Shove it on the turn regardless what the card is as we already pot commited. We are also getting nice dds, it should be ~2:1.

As played without raise flop:
Calling is fine as we don't want to make the pot bigger as the board is ultra wet already.

River:
Bet/fold. River raise is very strong on low limits, rarely bluffs.

Howdy,

As ragney already mentioned you should play it more aggressively, otherwise you missed a lot of value and put yourself into a difficult spot.

3bet preflop because if you call UTG will call along often and you don't wanna really go multiway here.

As played raise flop. Always. Make it rather big (like 3.5$-4$) because flop is really drawy and you don't wanna see many, many cards on the turn.

As played with calling flop I guess it's fine to call turn with our FH outs, but he just keeps betting and if you said he has tight image I'd say it's pretty strong move on this board.

On river you may try to go for thin value when he checks to you, but make it bet/fold, he won't raise here worse.

Good luck!
