Default 2/4: KKK flop and I\'ve got A9

Villain is 33/25/2.5, and I haven't gotten into a previous encounter with him. No real feel of his play unfortunately. When I called the flop, I was debating whether to take this to showdown unimproved.

Pacific Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $2/$4
6 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (6 players) SlantNGo is UTG+1 with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">SlantNGo raises</font>, 3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">BB 3-bets</font>, SlantNGo calls.

Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (4.5SB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">BB bets</font>, SlantNGo calls.

Turn: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3.25BB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">BB bets</font>, SlantNGo calls.

River: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (5.25BB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">BB bets</font>, SlantNGo calls.

I raise the river for value. Only thing you're scared of here is TT+ or the unlikely case king.

My first instinct was to raise the turn but I think your line's better. If we raise the turn and he's got a smaller pp or something like AQ or AJ he's probably folding here so you put in two bets to win one when you're ahead. If he's got a big pp or the K you're getting reraised and know you've got an unpleasant call down where you're probably going to lose unless you hit your A.

He's not folding any pair or AJ or AQ here. He's at least peeling, probably calling down.

I raise the turn for value. If I didn't raise the turn, I raise the river.

If I didn't fold the flop, I play it the same.

Then you think a turn raise is correct?
