hmm, if you're going to fold to a raise, why not check/call?

Without a specific read on BB I'd call the river raise, but I usually pay off too much. You're getting 10.5-1, I think that might be enough to cover the times Villain is bluffing or raising an A or worse two-pair.

because many times, typical villians will call with a lot of worse hands, but will not bet/raise without having you beat.

No one thinks there's a 10% chance villian just paired an ace and only puts hero on a pair of kings?
