1/2 Flopped set vs all in on river
Some background on the players: 3 guys grouped in the CO, BTN, and SB have been calling wide and never 3betting pre, even with premiums. For instance, the BTN flatted with Kings then 4 bet me after I 3b AQo earlier.
Basically their entire range pre is call as long as one of their cards had a face. I think my image at this point is tight and aggressive.
$1/2 NL (8 handed)
UTG Hero ($300 effective)
CO
BTN
SB ($450)
Hero is dealt Q♦Q♥
Hero bets $15, CO, BTN and SB call.
My thinking on the big opening size is due to the CO, BTN, and SB known to call very wide and often. Opening $10 on this table would likely get at least 3 callers anyways so I bumped it to $15.
Flop ($62) Q♣K♦6♥
SB checks, Hero bets $40, CO folds, BTN and SB call
turn ($182) A♣
SB checks, hero bets $100. BTN folds, SB calls
river ($382) J♣
SB bets jams and covers hero, hero has about $145 left. Hero?
I know I overplayed my hand somewhere. Thoughts?

Thanks for feedback. Shoving turn definitely sounds like the correct move.
Spoiler
SB showed Kc10c for the royal flush
One way to look at is that it's just a cooler, and V might not have folded, no matter how much you bet on flop or turn.
That may be true, but V's draws are going to brick out more often than not, so I think the lesson here should be to get our value on earlier streets. If you bet bigger on flop and over-bet jam turn, he's probably still calling, and you get the double up when his draws miss
