weak with QQ
villain is capable of re-raising PF with other holdinds besides AA/KK. I was really unsure how to play this as I did not want to play for the stacks with vogue.

the three player post flop is the key variable here. given your hesitance to play for a large pot against a specific opponent (which is fine) you do lose the flop raise line. if you had last position you could have value bet the river, but since your goal was a cheap showdown and the villian in question had last position, i think the river check was fine too. QQ is probably a slight favorite here against any two random hands on that board, but you have 3 hearts, a paired board and a possible straight w/ 47 or 79. so the line is just fine for that board when it completes, especially since you noted an aversion against one of the specific opps. a raise at end would let an aggro player like him to make a move, and that is the last thing you want.
would you be willing to call a river bet from him since he did not bet the turn in position? i might be more inclined to do so since he did not be the turn. but betting into him on the river is a different story.
