I sure felt lost in this hand. I guess the best thing to do is fold preflop, and I definitely would have if the blinds were bigger. The price seemed right in this case, so I'm kind of iffy on the call. Flop play seems like it's standard to me, but maybe I'm wrong. Turn play... I was prepared to check-fold but the bet was so small. There's a lot of weak hands both villains could hold here, even if I'm very suspicious of the Q. River play... standard? I still see players making these post-oak bluffs because they can't fire out a real one, but I also understand that people are incorporating the post-oak value bet into their games, too. The problem is that the pot odds often justify a call to see which one it is, unless you have a read on the player (not the case here).

can you really be ahead of anything here? Fold it pre, if not pre then dump as soon as possible afterwards IMO.

Preflop call is borderline ok. Fold flop for sure.
