Best line here ? Throw out a 3/4 pot bet ? Overbet for value ? Shove remaining $2 ? Check behind (don't think so) ?

Make a proper raise on the flop coz it will allow you to get it in on the turn a little easier (doesn't matter as much in this hand since you are on the shorter side, but something you should keep in mind). The "straight card" is hardly a scare card at all since only gutshots got there, and if that is the case there is nothing you can do. As played, just shove the turn since you only have a psb left.

However, just fold this preflop. Why on earth are you cold calling a 9bb raise with KQo?

Think I just doubled his raise because I want him in the hand, I believed he would fold to a much bigger raise. The villain who is in the hand on the turn has the same stack as me, so I did shove the turn for remaining $2 and he folded.

Oh yeah and I just like playing KQ at 2nl. I always see a flop with it if possible.
