Trips tk facing shove by the river dryish board NL5

Blinds: $0.02/$0.05 (6 Players) BN: $8.33 (Hero)
SB: $5.11
BB: $5.00
UTG: $6.44
MP: $6.46
CO: $9.78
MP is a reg NL5 zoom
Preflop ($0.07) Hero is BN with A Q
UTG raises to $0.12, MP calls $0.12, CO folds, Hero calls $0.12, 2 folds
Flop ($0.43) Q Q 5
UTG checks, MP checks, Hero bets $0.14, UTG calls $0.14, MP raises to $0.50, Hero calls $0.36, UTG folds
At this point i thought he had some sort of overpairs or maybe KQ, QJs.....but if we have trips here, wouldnt we just call instead of raising? The raise into 2 people with the utg raiser it's a bit weird. Draws should prob check.
Turn ($1.57) Q Q 5 2
MP bets $1.20, Hero calls $1.20
i think pretty standard call, no need to raise. but what is he c/r the flop and donking the turn with? I dont think you play a draw this way, but maybe KQ? 55 and 22 also posible for the full
River ($3.97) Q Q 5 2 7
MP bets $4.64 and is all in
Now comes an overbet. I guess since we are beating hands hes value beting i should call right? (KQ, QJs) But i had a strong feeling he had 55.

Forget your feelings, 3 combos of 55 compared to 4 combos KQ, 4 combos QJ and 3 combos AQ for you to chop sometimes. It's a call.

It's a size that acomplish several points. 1 start building the pot. 2 keep players with eq in and fold others. Induces monkey play, since it's a very dry flp and it's very unlikely that anyone have somth, so some people tend to raise.

Sqz 100% preflop, AQo never wants to play multiway and have great fold equity preflop. Playing 4 way would be disaster(Equity and EV of this hand in multiway spots quite bad) for you (if bb complete too)

yeah, agree with Jeff_ squeeze pre

and also, I would exploitatively bet quite large on this flop MW. They will call with FD's on paired boards all day long at these stakes. I get it, you block the best FD's but that's not compelling a reason enough to play this soft.
