Misplayed a hand

Today I misplayed a hand.
 
I had KQ offsuit in early position so i decided to limp/call a short raise, since i was out of posi. and at a very loose table. Fortunately the table limped behind and i got to see a free cheap flop.
 
FLOP: Q 2 5
 
I decided to lead out $8 into $10/fold if i got re raised
 
1 caller.
 
TURN: Q 2 5 K
 
This is where i went wrong, I checked (to induce a bluff since the K probably would more than likely scare him off) I was wrong in thinking that because he could easily have 22 or 55 (limped pot). The best thing that i could've done is bet out $20 since he ended up sucking out on me. by betting $20 i can fold to a raise because if a K improved his hand he has KQ minimum.
 
RIVER: Q 2 5 K 5
 
I carelessly bet a weird amount quickly ($20ish) and i got insta re-raised all in. He ended up telling me later on that night he had A 5.
