Default River value bet?

Villain is decent. In another hand, I had 33. He raises PF, I call. Flop comes 9 high rainbow with a 3. I check, he checks. Turn A, I bet pot he calls. River I bet pot he calls. He has AK. He chose to bring that hand up right before this, saying "you must be a real good poker player to hit that set of 3's".

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Hero ($297.30)
UTG ($85.95)
Button ($66.58)
SB ($185.45)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB (poster) raises to $4</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $13</font>, SB calls $10.

Flop: ($30) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $25</font>, SB calls $25.

Turn: ($80) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $50</font>, SB calls $50.

River: ($180) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: $180

Is this a clear river bet?

Probably, most decent villains are not going to check that river with the queen.

I like a small blocker and folding to a raise. Like 60-90. If you think he'll check-raise with two-pair, you might have to call.

I think you should blocker it, but I don't think I have the guts to.

He has position, so it cannot be a blocker bet. Only betting for value here.
