Results:

Spoiler

$8.04 pot ($0.36 rake)
Final Board: Q 8 2 5 Q
Hero mucked J Q and lost (-$3.97 net)
CO mucked and won $7.68 ($3.71 net)

As played, should I have done anything differently? At any point, I don't see myself raising as it doesn't fold out worse. I also doubt the river Q changes anything.

Hi limpblz1988

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: As played I agree that raising has no merit here and his river range is pretty polarized. He either has a strong Qx or better or nothing. And there's not a lot of nothing that he can have.
