Default 25NL/6max: Villain keeps betting, I keep raising.

I'm a long time lurker first time poster in this forum.

Table background:

This was probably the most aggressive 25nl table I had ever played at, VPIP-30%, PFR%-19%. Villain stats VPIP%-25, PFR%-25, AF-4.5.




Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $34
UTG+1: $29.80
CO: $36.60
hero: $29.50
SB: $25.35
BB: $24.65

Pre-flop: (6 players) hero is Button with
UTG folds, [color=#cc0000]UTG+1 raises to $0.85</font>, CO folds, hero calls, 2 folds.

Flop: ($2.05, 2 players)
[color=#cc0000]UTG+1 bets $1</font>, [color=#cc0000]hero raises to $2.5</font>, UTG+1 calls.

Turn: ($7.05, 2 players)
[color=#cc0000]UTG+1 bets $3</font>, [color=#cc0000]hero raises to $7.75</font>, UTG+1 calls.

River: ($22.55, 2 players)

Final pot: $59.35

Comments on all streets appreciated.

I may just call on the flop but most of the time I'm folding.

Raise more on the turn but it looks fine.

I fold flop, raise turn to 10, and river is fine. Expect to see trip kings here almost always.

I actually like the flop raise, but I make it a bit more, 3.25 or so. It definitely looks like he wants an excuse to fold there.

After the turn card it pretty much plays itself.

Switch tables.

Anyway I don't mind your hand, I'd usually fold your hand but raising is fine. Your turn bet could have been a bit more, but it doesn't matter your felting KX here always regardless.

I like the way you played all streets, except possibly raising a little more on the turn.
Also, your name is awesome. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thanks to all who replied.

Consensus seems to be that I need to increase the size of my raises. I agree, undersizing my raises postflop is a bad habit I need to break.

Check_The_Nuts, when you say flop is terrible do you mean I should raise more or that I should fold?

My thinking was that villain was raising preflop 25% of the time so his range was pretty wide. I thought that if he didn't have a king it would be hard for him to continue after my flop raise and if he did call the flop I thought my raise might induce a turn check by villain giving me a free look at the river if i didn't hit the turn.
