Default right or wrong way to play set?

Question is obv. should I have repopped the flop, should i have checked/bet stronger turn, is the river shove how to get maximum value here? Villian is 30/11/1 so im doing a happy dance during this hand. Donk bet on turn was trying to induce an AI, unfortunatly I think the A was a scare card for him, I also thought he mite have had AK which is ultimately why I shoved the river.

SB: $16.55
<u>Hero (BB): $31</u>
UTG: $7.25
MP: $3.25
CO: $10.55
<u>BTN: $25.30</u>

<font color="black">Preflop:</font> Hero is dealt 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG calls $0.25, 2 folds, <font color="red">BTN raises to $1</font>, SB folds, Hero calls $0.75, UTG folds

<font color="black">Flop:</font> ($2.35) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $1.50</font>, <font color="red">BTN raises to $4.25</font>, Hero calls $2.75

<font color="black">Turn:</font> ($10.85) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $5</font>, BTN calls $5

<font color="black">River:</font> ($20.85) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $15.05</font>, BTN calls all-in for $15.05

Pot Size: $50.95 ($2.50 Rake)

I'd probably go for the check raise all in on the turn instead of donking it. The flop play depends, if he pays off with pairs a lot I'd repop him as waiting till the turn actually reps a lot more strength

There's no need to play tricky (donkbet) at microstakes! C/R the turn because he showed strength on a raggedy flop ==&gt; profit.

I prefer c/r'ing the flop or c/c'ing flop and then c/r'ing some turns and c/c'ing some and then leading river or something.

If your going to donk the flop (which I don't really like) then I would probably call the raise and then as before c/r some turns and c/c some. I would definately c/r the Ad turn though.

Yea, donking this turn is horrible.

Wouldn't the flop donk be just as bad as the turn donk, if the K scares him he might fold and you fail to earn the c-bet that he's likely to put in when you check.

A guy with 11% pfr and an AF of 1 usually isn't going to pay you off much anyway if he misses. If you checkraise a flop that he hit, his (probably) K suddenly looks a lot worse than it would had he raised your donkbet and you just called (which happened). When you check the turn, he cannot resist firing because he thinks you're weak, and you shove. Standard stack-a-donk.
