Only reasons I can justify it...raised and reraised pot, and slightly scared money, plus bein buzzed...how bad is it?

QQ/JJ would normally lead out here, so I'm not terribly worried about it, but other set hands might wait until the river to get tricky...

Villain is 23/9 ... I was running 20/15 after several good hands and quality showdowns during a short span.

I bet more on the flop + turn, particularly if I'm only betting 2 streets on hands like this.
