Preflop aggressor fails to contibet, so I decided to semibluff (!?).

Call on turn is well within reasonable draw-hand play. Could I have instead fired again on turn?

I included results (highlight to see) as they are amusing.

Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.25/$0.5 No-Limit Hold'em (9 handed)

Known players:
[tg]SB$67.10:///////;BB$56.00:///////;UTG1$66.40:///////;UTG2$57.15:///////;MP1$24.45:///////;MP2$24.25:///////;MP3$50.00:///////;CO(Hero)$54.65:///////;BU$59.90:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q:d, K:d.
3 folds, MP2 raises to $2.00, MP3 folds, Hero calls $2.00, BU calls $2.00, 2 folds.

Flop: ($6.75) 6:c, J:d, T:h (3 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets $4.00, BU calls $4.00, MP2 folds.

Turn: ($14.75) 3:h (2 players)
Hero checks, BU bets $5.00, Hero calls $5.00.

River: ($24.75) 9:h (2 players)
Hero bets $15.00, BU calls $15.00.

Final Pot: $54.75.

Results follow:

BU shows a straight, king high(Qs Ks).
Hero shows a straight, king high(Qd Kd).

BU wins with a straight, king high(Qs Ks).
Hero wins with a straight, king high(Qd Kd).

I would double barrel there, to fold out Tx and lower pp-s.
betting yourself at river is fine
