SB: $44.23 (176.9 bb)
BB: $63.08 (252.3 bb)
UTG: $42.57 (170.3 bb)
MP: $68.27 (273.1 bb)
Hero (CO): $28.85 (115.4 bb)
BTN: $11.80 (47.2 bb)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q♠: K♣:
UTG raises to $0.62, MP calls $0.62, Hero raises to $2.40, 4 folds, MP calls $1.78

Flop: ($5.77) Q♦: 6♠: A♣: (2 players)
MP checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($5.77) A♥: (2 players)
MP bets $2.75, Hero calls $2.75

River: ($11.27) A♦: (2 players)
MP bets $5.38, Hero??

Preflop: UTG plays 45/36 in 11 hands. MP plays 86/71 in 7 hands. Decided to squeeze.

Flop: Hit 2nd pair, but I don't see much reasons to cbet. Decided to check back and bluffcatch the turn.

Turn: It's a good card because blocks Ax. As planned OTF, I called.

River: Call once more?

I would call there. Villain is a possible fish. If he has Ax, good for him, but I believe he has a lot of weaker full houses and bluffs etc..

Man, how can you skip cbetting flop on a board that hits your squeezing range?

We have 2nd pair good kicker and A hits villains calling range too. I would say we are already way ahead/way behind and our hand doesn't need that much protection. By checking we keep villains range wider. I see some benefits in checking flop and calling/betting turn.

Because I don't want to bluff with my bluffcatchers in general + nothing worse will call imo. This card hits his range, too.
