Couple of hands that might be spew 1

Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 (6 Players) UTG: $20.05
MP: $11.00
CO: $43.18 (Hero)
BN: $10.00
SB: $10.00
BB: $10.49
Villain seems like a reg, we'd had a few battles up to this point, nothing too unusual but I had been very aggressive vs him in particular and I play loose aggressive in general these days.
Preflop ($0.15) Hero is CO with 9 J
UTG raises to $0.30, MP folds, Hero calls $0.30, 3 folds
We're deep and BTN and blinds are standard nits.
Flop ($0.87) Q 8 2
UTG bets $0.60, Hero calls $0.60
Villain cbets a lot on flop and turn, especially OOP so if he checks turn or river I expect him to way over-fold. Also I can rep a lot of scary shizz, and he'll never see the offsuit Tball coming.
Turn ($2.07) Q 8 2 7
UTG bets $1.50, Hero calls $1.50
River ($5.07) Q 8 2 7 J
UTG bets $1.93, Hero raises to $7.15, UTG folds
When he bets so small on the club I think his range is mostly AQ and overpairs, I block QJ and JJ and he probs bets bigger with a flush. From his perspective my range looks like either flushes or very marginal showdown value, which I don't think most regs would give me credit for turning into bluffs.

I haven't posted a hand in a long while and just started playing after about 2 years off so be gentle!

preflop: I don't like the call, 3beting may be fine but I would almost always fold.
flop: fine
turn: clear fold
river: I'm no sure but I think it's fine

Sry edit: Flop is fine, turn is a fold . I thought you had hearts when I wrote this (damn scroll) but it doesn't invalidate the rest of my post I think.

I feel that preflop should be a 3bet or fold w/J9s in those positions because it's slightly too weak for a call.

OTR I'd go all-in with nut-flushes, sets and I would use some nut-flush blockers as bluffs, not random Jx that block his folding range. I don't feel it's necessary to have a smaller raising size on this river when I am so polarized so I would just go allin for max fold equity, and max value against his calling range.
I don't feel like his sizing is particularly indicative of weakness.
Villain could have any random number of flushes, sets, straights, and top pair in his range and we don't know if he folds any of those combos.
Folding river is probably best with your hand.
