[10z] Defending Queens

Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 (6 Players) BN: $6.37
SB: $8.98
BB: $19.70 (Hero)
UTG: $11.48
MP: $14.45
CO: $14.62
Preflop ($0.15) Hero is BB with 5 Q Q K
3 folds, BN raises to $0.20, SB folds, Hero calls $0.10
Flop ($0.45) Q 7 A
Hero checks, BN checks
Turn ($0.45) Q 7 A 7
Hero checks, BN checks
After his check OTF, I don't think there are many hands that can call two streets, a 7 will bet anyway and I my hand needs no protection. I like check raising a lot of turns against delayed c-bets so having one of my strongest hands there makes sense.
River ($0.45) Q 7 A 7 9
Hero checks, BN bets $0.43, Hero raises to $1.20, BN raises to $4.03
I don't like my check since I miss the chance to get one small bet from weak hands. In the moment I probably overestimated the chance to get a bluff on the flush card from someone who declined every opportunity to bluff before.

Against his pot sized 3-bet I am confronted with conflicting information. On one hand I don't think there is a big chance he checked a flopped set (the two hands that beat me) behind twice but on the other hand his bet indicates that he has no fear (or is completely full of it). I think folding is out of the question but can we actually raise his last $2 profitably?
