Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (9 handed)

Villain in the hand is very loose. I have played 40 hands and he has a VP$IP of 60%...

Here is my thinking. Preflop I raise since I probably have got the best hand.
Flop. Not the best of flops but certainly a very playable one. I bet out hoping to get reraised. When it comes back to me I just call and hopes that the Turn is a good card for me.
Turn. Not a good card for me since it´s an overcard to my PP but not a scarecard either. I check and watch what happens. When it gets back to me I am thinking that the callers are on a flush or straight draw and the only one I could be behind is the BB. but could he be holding a 2? I decide to just call again as I would hate to get threebet by a 2 and no one is folding anyway...

River. a blank. great card if I was ahead on the Turn and not so great if I was behind. I decide to just check-call...

How would you guys play this one?

I would either 3-bet this flop or bet into him on the turn. I sure as hell don't want to give some hearts or a straight draw a free card on the turn.
