[b]$200 NLHE Full Ring: $200 NLHE Full Ring: AQo in the SB facing a UTG open and UTG +2 cold call[/b]

Villain is fairly young and is a TAG but on the looser side.
Hero has been very tight and aggressive, never limping and only raising to enter the pot. This is a 9 handed game, and hero's VPIP is around 12-15%.

Live 1/3 game at the casino. Hero has 300 (effective stack).

UTG (villain) opens to 12, UTG +2 cold calls (tight aggressive player as well), hero 3 bets to 40 on the SB with AdQc. UTG and UTG+2 call.

Flop: Qh10d8s Hero leads for 40 (1/3 pot), villain calls, UTG +2 folds.

Turn: Kc Hero checks, villain checks back.

River: 6c Hero bets 25 into 200. Villain calls.

Some of my questions this hand:
1. Should I be raising larger preflop? I think 50-55 is more appropriate.
2. Should I be betting the turn or just check and fold to a bet? The king smashes villain's UTG range, and I have about a pot sized bet left going into the turn. The problem is if I have the king on the turn, I'm likely betting, so checking here could be picked up as extreme weakness by a good observant player.
3. I want to get a showdown, but don't want to call a large river bet, so I lead really small assuming villain wouldn't raise unless he had me crushed. Is this too easy to read that I have a weak hand? Maybe I should bet 70 into 200 instead of 25?
