Hand delivered by Upswing Poker

UTG (Hero): $2.00 (100 bb)
MP: $3.39 (170 bb)
CO: $8.96 (448 bb)
BU: $2.86 (143 bb)
SB: $2.03 (102 bb)
BB: $2.05 (103 bb)

Pre-Flop: ($0.03) Hero is UTG with Q A
Hero raises to $0.06, 1 fold, CO calls $0.06, 3 players fold

Flop: ($0.15) A A 7 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.11, CO calls $0.11

Turn: ($0.37) J (2 players)

River: ($0.91) T (2 players)
Hero bets $0.72, CO raises to $8.52 (all-in), Hero calls $0.84 (all-in)


I think my preflop, flop and turn play is standard (villain is marked as a station), but...
... Is my call on villain's shove OTR a mistake?

Thank you for your options.

If you bet that big on the river with only 84c behind a fold is out of the question for me, but there aren't to many weaker hands I can think off he would push here. Maybe a weaker Ax hand.

Possibly a run out you could turn AQ in to a bluff catcher or just go 1/3p to target the Jx and Tx fd's that picked up a pair on the river.

I believe it is overplayed. I would double barrel and check/call most rivers.
Betsizing was awful.
River you have no choice but to call.

I also think too river better play check-call. But if you bet a river you had to call this push.

Is check calling .80 .90 better than value betting say 1/3p .30 ?. By betting 1/3p we maximize value and can minimze losses if we b/f to a raise as villain likely doesnt raise worse hands on the river.

This is a very precarious position. You have no way of knowing if you are far ahead or losing. I like a River Check/Call.
