Default Weak fold to river val bet? NL$100

Villain is 42/34/3.5
Only reads I'be got are he'll call down 3streets w/ weakAce and that he seems to be pretty aggro on the river. This is the first minriase I've seen.

Full Tilt Poker, $0.50/$1 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 2 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

Hero (SB): $100.95
BB: $138.90

Pre-Flop: K T dealt to Hero (SB)
Hero raises to $3, BB calls $2

Flop: ($6) 2 T 5 (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero bets $4.75, BB raises to $9.50, Hero calls $4.75

Turn: ($25) 5 (2 Players)
BB bets $13, Hero calls $13

River: ($51) 6 (2 Players)
BB bets $25, Hero folds

Results: $51 Pot ($0.50 Rake)
BB mucked and WON $50.50 (+$25 NET)

This seems soft to me but w/ the minraise and two 1/2pot bets can I expect to be good here often enough? Should I have raised his weak turn lead?

Calling him down is fine .

Getting 3:1 on the river , you're better off calling and hope he has k-x with a worse kicker .

Calling down is fine. If the board was wasn't that dry I'd raise on the flop or on turn.

Taking a weak line you got EXACTLY what you wanted. He would most likely bet more with a 5 or the straight, yes?
You only lose to AT, I would rather raise the river than fold with calling as my standard. Calling here is not just fine, it is a easy call given the pot odds and the likehood of having the best hand
