raise turn
should probably expand. turn lead is weak. you have a guy behind who is definitely drawing. you might not be ahead (a OMC here could easy have QJ, AA or KK and be scared of trips) but there is a good chance you are. id raise turn to about 2/3-3/4 pot and then check most rivers.
obv fold to a 3 bet but that will almost never happen.
Just call River.
I think its fine to just call down, if turn didnt pair the board i wouldve raised turn if he sized it the same.
Donk bets tend to be weak made hands, but geezer might have QJ, and be scared of draws, the tiny sizing makes me think its some sort of Qx, but the 5 means he could just be scared of 5x, and if you raise hes probably folding KQ. So I guess my point is all a raise does is cause all the weaker hands to fold. Which isnt the end of the world since V2 is drawing, but isnt great when V1 might have you beat so the raise is kinda thin.
I think theres an argument to raise all 3 streets, but i think its just not an ideal situation, and the blocker bet is successfully performing its job here.
I would limp in. Even moreso with loose/aggro Button (building big pots OOP to him isn't a good plan, imo).
SPR is 8.5 and we offered two opponents very good IO of 27++:1 preflop, so I definitely don't want to start playing for stacks (even though anyone can actually easily make us play for stacks by the river). So also just calling the flop donk.
Ditto reasoning for the turn. And yeah, it's a lol bet, but an old guy could size like this with the nuts (and old guys can easily just flat preflop with all the sets).
Honestly kinda gross river spot because old guys ~never bet TP for three streets (especially on the river). But for this price prolly a sigh call to hope we chop or are beating a block betting KQ. This might also suck in V2.

Hero calls and wins against QTo
Agree but would bet most rivers small.
