Villain was 18.5/3/2.4 postflop agg...didn't want to chase him off. I know my line has to suck. What is better? I normally don't call raises with AQ but was changing up and was more than prepared to dump it on the flop.

I go all-in on the river here and take my chances that he will call. By going all-in, it looks like you are trying to steal the pot and villain would be inclined to call figuring it is a split pot. If he folds, then you didn't lose much anyways...

I lead the flop, lead the turn, lead the river.
My sig is too much for you to handle.

Value betting the river here gives him too easy of a decision to make a stack saving call down, IMO. Bet $6 or $7 if you must value bet. I vote push-- it looks like a split pot and if he's got AA or KK, he might actually think he's ahead. Your line so far hasn't said much at all, much less that you have a Q. You could be floating with JJ or TT. You're freerolling to either double your stack/make no additional money vs. only $3.50 more. Make him squirm. (Though given how weakly he's been betting, I think he's looking for an excuse to fold)

The 3% PFR makes me wonder if this guy is capable of stealing at all, I might make a weak laydown pre-flop.

Post-flop, meh. I think it's more important what you're doing here sometimes with air.

I certainly would push this river.

Renton will become famous soon enough
 I check/call flop check raise turn and push river. Its a predictable line, but even the stronger players at these levels are getting away from big pairs here, and pairs are the only hand that pay you off here.
