Up and down weekend that actually ended up on the positive side so I have that going for me.
Did I get what I deserved on this hand. Calling on button with KQo is hardly ever a winning proposition. The decision here was to take my losses and fold the river and call the river and see if I got lucky.
The villain in this hand is a 20/2/.7 guy over 566 hands.

Call. You're getting about 5:1 on your money here with top pair. SB has given you no reason to think he's super-strong here.
Calling on button with KQo is hardly ever a winning proposition.
I might call on the button with anything. You have so many ways to win/maximize a pot.
I agree with Memphis. Why would you be afraid of calling on the button with KQo?
A reraise with KQo would get raised back by better hands and never get called by worse.
Of course, I don't think I can fold getting that price.
It turns it he was pretty strong with quad sixes.
DOH!!!
I liked the thoughts of calling on the button; but I still think it can get you in trouble; but I definitely agree with can't raise to fold better.
One thought here is I actually wouldn't mind checking behind on the turn. You're really not afraid of any other card aside from an ace so it might induce a bluff from a worse pair on the river. It's more of a rope a dope approach and it's something that I include in my arsenal.
