Default Bottom set, how far to go on the river

No real reads other than the fact that villain is likely a typical micro-limit donk. Should I have capped the river?

Ultimate Bet 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

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

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

River: (5 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 11 BB

I would cap this river. He has AT, A4, Ax far more than he has KQ or AA. I've seen people open complete with both, but I don't think someone who open completes with KQ plays the flop like that, and I don't think someone who open completes with AA is playing it so timidly on either the flop or turn.

I would raise preflop and cap the river. Raising preflop gives a stronger impression of my hand and gives us some fold equity after the flop (I like to play really aggro PF at 6-max). Sometimes you see a loose-passive moron taht didn't raise preflop and called to the river with KQ, but most of the time I think you're up against a crappy 2 pair or maybe even a lone ace. I'm gonna guess he has A4o, pm me the results? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Mr Fishy has just hit the ace he has chased all the way down. maybe 2-pair with an A4, but more often than not you'll be shown A-rag here IMHO. punish him with a river value cap!

I find it really difficult to raise this preflop. I don't hit a set, I get raised with 3 and 4 overcards and then I'm lost. He can easily bluff me out by betting with any 2, and then am I calling down or folding? Not to mention you can be betting all the streets and have a passive opponent call you down with any pair.
