Should I have bet more? My turn bet was small because I was trying to induce a raise. At the time I'm not sure what I was expecting from villain. Was this board just too scary for him to do anything other than flat call?

How would you have played this?

UTG ($24.65)
UTG+1 ($26.84)
Hero ($24.75)
MP2 ($24.80)
CO ($43.66)
Button ($17.68)
SB ($23.90)
BB ($25)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with J, Q. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
UTG calls $0.25, UTG+1 calls $0.25, Hero raises to $1, MP2 calls $1, 4 folds, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $0.75.

Other than betting a bit more on each street - half a pot at least, most people with good draws will call that - you could have pushed on the river. There's a strong chance any ace would call any bet here despite the flush on the board.
