My read on the guy is he seems a little Agg to the point of being fishy. I haven't seen him show down to much, but he likes to end the hands before the river by re-raising. I once saw him re-raise with KQ on a K high flop into AK. He lost $15-20 on that hand. Table is fairly loose right now. I am seeing 2-3 callers on each raised hand.
Did I play this right?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

BB ($8.35)
UTG ($14.15)
UTG+1 ($7.80)
MP1 =#A500AF(Villian)/ ($47.80)
MP2 ($9.70)
CO ($42.55)
Hero ($27.70)
SB ($25.75)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K, K.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.25, MP1 =#A500AF(Villian)/ calls $0.25, MP2 calls $0.25, 1 fold, Hero raises to $1.5, 2 folds, UTG+1 calls $1.25, MP1 =#A500AF(Villian)/ calls $1.25, MP2 folds.
This is my standard raise when averaging 2-3 callers. It is a little higher to weed out the truly moronic Loose callers

Flop: ($5.10) 8, 4, 5 (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Villian checks, Hero bets $3.75, UTG+1 folds, Villian raises to $7.5, Hero calls $3.75.
Safe flop, bet 3/4 pot = standard play for me. Raise is cause for concern.

Turn: ($20.10) 9 (2 players)
Villian checks, Hero checks.
Check is good here. Don't want to walk into CR, and I want to control the size of the pot. Should I bet to avoid the free card play.(most don't make that play OOP)

River: ($20.10) 3 (2 players)
Villian bets $10, Hero ?????
Moment of Truth?

Final Pot: $40.10
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

 Easy call. His check-raise was probably a top pair-like hand looking to push you off AK/AQ. Since you checked on the turn he decided to fire off another barrel into you.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

 Call. Good check behind on turn.

Could be a set, but you have to call here.

Thanks guys. Lukie you're right. It was a set, and I did call. I appreciate the good check comment as it helps to know that isn't too weak with an overpair. Villian hit his set of 5's. Dat Pokah!!

Its a pretty small check/raise so i guess it could also be a free card play. Not as likely OOP but hey, it worked.
