Default Top pair good kicker on low board against pfr

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Villain is a 35/11 with a post flop AF of 2. Is this line too aggressive? My thoughts were he would probably raise overcards to narrow the board. In retrospect I think my hand is good enough to keep some more people in the hand... Would a flop cr and then a check fold if he three bets or lead if he just calls be better? I am also obviously trying to maximize value.

Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $3.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, CO (poster) checks, Button calls, Hero completes, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, UTG+2 calls, CO calls, Button calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (10.50 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, UTG+2 folds, CO folds, Button folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (7.25 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls.

River: (11.25 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

Final Pot: 13.25 BB

I like the flop but i would have bet the turn. I think it accomplishes the same thing and getting 3-bet here or having it check through sucks.

I fold this PF. This hand does very poorly multiway and you're out of position for the whole hand.

Just seems to me that, after the BB's raise, there's a good enough chance of being dominated and out of position that I fold b/c I end up bleeding money in these spots.

folding for the BBs raise is ok, so is calling I think. I'd just bet-3bet the flop if I wer eyou. Betting is good because you can count on the PF raiser to raise almost any two and protect his (your) hand. THen just 3bet his ass.
