Villain is 35/8, seems somewhat bad.

Prima Poker skin
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $60.58
UTG+1: $26.28
Benoso: $50.17
Button: $29.29
SB: $46.09
BB: $36.41

Pre-flop: (6 players) Benoso is CO with K J
UTG raises to $2, UTG+1 calls, Benoso calls, 3 folds.

Flop: Q K T ($6.75, 3 players)
UTG bets $2, UTG+1 calls, Benoso raises to $8, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls.

Turn: 6 ($30.75, 3 players)
UTG bets $7.68, UTG+1 folds, Benoso calls.

River: 6 ($46.11, 2 players)
UTG bets $11.52, Benoso calls.

Results:
Final pot: $69.15

By the river I'm pretty annoyed but feel I have to call given the fact that he's made such a sissy bet. I really feel I played this hand bad, so please berate me to the hills.

-Thoughts on pre-flop call?
-What should I do on the flop?
-What should I do on the turn?

You only beat crap... so I think you played it OK. He might call a raise with AQ/JJ/AT...but more likely with something like AA/AK is scared (rightfully) of 2 pair/straight hands.

Note his range pf(8%) should be quite tight, especially UTG - assuming you have at least 100 hands.

Oh, I guess he can't have AA here since he rivered the 2 pair he was scared of.

AND FOLD PRE FLOP! Against a 30/8 UTG you have dominated crap. I would call/raise if he had limped though, or maybe multi-way if you had the button. Cut-off doesn't cut it here.

 With a 30/8 raising UTG and a short stack calling I would be more inclined to fold this with three to act. As played you have to call that weak bet on the river since he doesn't seem to confident in his hand either. With that hand and that board I'm looking for reasons to fold.

Folding the flop is pretty silly. There isn't even a flush draw out there to fuck up our equity.

 I think you played it pretty perfect, only thing I'm unsure about is the flop raise (which I see as standard against most players) because an 8PFR's UTG range is pretty fucking squeaky. Turn and river you've got to call down basically.
