UTG raises to $0.06, 1 fold, CO calls $0.06, 1 fold, Hero 3-bets to $0.24, 2 players fold, CO calls $0.18

River: ($1.80) 7 (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $2 (all-in), SB (Hero) folds

I squeezed QQ on the SB and got one call. I cbet half pot which now I think I should size up a little bit. Turn completes a flush but I don't think he has many flushes and second Jack reduces a chance him having Jack so I bet again. But quite a small bet again. On the river I don't know what to do so I check and fold on the bet. What do you think I should do?

XC turn. sure he does not have many flushes, nor many trips, but versus those combos youre pretty much dead. no reason to build the pot.

IMHO, by betting the turn that small, you are basically saying you don't have either a flush or a J yourself.

Cbet way small or check (I think I'd prefer to check).
Turn check/call. Bet/fold won't be exploitable for sure as they don't balance at all, but I'm sure you won't be the river again and you are just cutting down showdown value on your check/call line OTR.
River check/fold with this combo.

It's interesting to know what kind of villain the CO is, but if he's a fish you can easy Cbet 2/3 pot on every street and shove a blank river card for thin value I think.
