Seems fine.

I'd be tempted to raise to 40bb on the river to target Qx but I don't think he has many Qx when he bets this small. And he's not calling a big raise with less than Qx.

I raise to around 10-11BBs OTF and continue aggression on later streets.

Is raising the flop not better here?

I like the way you played it. You have little FE on the flop because it smashes his range and he's unlikely to have a bluff cbet range on this flop.

I like it too, but def raising river more. Like 34bbs min.

Pretty much any pp for starters. With this flop he can't expect you to float with air so getting you to fold is pretty likely result and good one for him.

But then again you don't really need to get him to fold those bluffs since you beat them and you have hand that doesn't hate that many turn cards to level of "I'm puking". Okay there's 12 cards you aren't too happy to see but those aren't "I'm puking" level bad cards(though does mean you need to approach carefully and not get overly excited even if you improve on river).

River I'm raising more. He's not calling smaller raise likely that wide so target the few hands that can call big raise.
