Default help in the blinds

2nd orbit so nothing I can tell you about this guy.
I'm trying to stop being so passive, but I've been taking marginal hands too far lately which doesn't make me happy.

PokerStars 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is SB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">7 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls.

Flop: (4 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, BB calls.

Turn: (5 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

River: (7 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 9 BB

Comments on all 4 appreciated. I'm pretty sure I made the worst river play possible too. C/F is probably greater than B/F, right?

Default Re: help in the blinds

Pre flop - I have no problem with the raise.
Flop - I like the bet. No reason to believe that a flop like this hit a random big blind. The raise by the BB creates a tough decision. It does not seem to me that he is going to raise without a hand that can beat you. I'd say JJ, QQ, TT, A9, AT, 99 and TT are all real possibilities.
Turn: When he calls your bet, I think you can eliminate TT and most draws. He also is probably telling you that you are going to have to showdown the best hand.
River - There is probably some equity in seeing his hand and getting a read on him and there is an outside chance he was getting cute with something like 44.
River-
