Blind defense 22
 
Villain is 38/9 with average agression. He open limped KTs from the SB earlier and bet out TPGK and checkraised the turn when I raised the flop. He's opened with T9s in HJ so why he'd complete with KTs in the SB I don't know. He led out with the nuts on the river so he could 3 bet a LAG. Are there any cards I should be calling down/raising on the turn? If not should I just fold to the flop raise?

It is just plain stupid to raise PF. Every card is an overcard and every card is a scare card. Why would you raise when you are at best just slighty better than 50% favorite?

Raising makes him less likely to see the river with unpaired hands, which makes you much more than a coinflip. It really depends on the player for me.

You are more than a 50% favorite nearly any time. Most of the time if they had a pair, they would have raised preflop, so the fact that they limped means you are almost surely a favorite. As to every card being an overcard, that doesn't mean you can't play the hand. Raising gives you better fold equity on the flop, and if you get check/raised, you can always dump it.
