I don't think you are weak/tight...IMO . from your last post about the 98s calling with a pair onthe board I consider you pretty loose. Anyways, this hand just doesn't look good either in your spot. UTG+2 you said was a solid player and usually had the goods. with him betting small amounts into the pot it looked like he had a big hand and was trying to squeeze the most out of it that he could. I think he had A Q or maybe K Q and saw that you didn't bet the pot and only raised it to 2 in a pot of 3.75 , so he probably sensed a little weakness and called with A Q...I put him on A Q rather than K Q because with 2 pair and a flush draw out he definitely should of raised the pot to protect his hand....so here we are at the turn and the J hits...you both check to him and he bets...you two call...( I have no idea what the SB has)...the river is the Q...his money card...ofcourse he thinks you both are weak so he bets for value and you both call...he turns over his A Q...or his monster KQ and you lose a minimal amount instead of your whole stack. I guess some might say you should of bet the pot on the flop...I think that is the play I would of made ( that might be why somebody might call you weak/tight..but not me )..if I got raised then I would have to think about what to do next. Why bet 2 dollars into a scary flop when its only 1.75 more to bet the pot. I might have even bet more than the pot just to scare off the flush draw maybe. Once again...I don't pretend to be and poker genius..and I just write down what I'm thinking..take it or leave it.( I'm not sure what the SB had...maybe the same hand as you...I would of said he was on a flush draw but I doubt it since on the river he missed and still called the bet...he might of been in there with J 10 and since he hit the turn stayed in for the river..but I don't see him calling the bet at the end once again. )

Why are you checking the turn with TPTK and control of the hand?

LOL.He may be a rock, and if he is he's probably going to raise you on the flop. I think you have to bet out here on the turn and see what happens behind you. You still have 3 outs to the nuts on the river too.
