NL 10 zoom - TT calling down after facing flop checkraise

Blinds: $0.05/$0.10 (6 Players) BN: $7.64
SB: $10.15 (Hero)
BB: $8.93
UTG: $10.00
MP: $14.39
CO: $13.72
I have no stats on this player.
Preflop ($0.15) Hero is SB with T T
4 folds, Hero raises to $0.30, BB calls $0.20
Flop ($0.60) Q 5 9
Hero bets $0.40, BB raises to $1.20, Hero calls $0.80
Most of the time people don't raise top pair here. His range most likely consists of gutshots and flush draws in my opinion.
Turn ($3.00) Q 5 9 5
Hero checks, BB bets $2.15, Hero calls $2.15
Seems like a good card for me. Nothing really changed from previously.
River ($7.30) Q 5 9 5 6
Hero checks, BB bets $5.28 and is all in, Hero calls $5.28

TT seems like a particulary bad combo to bluff catch, blocking some missed staright draws. It´s hard to put him in a value hand, but imo the population underbluffs this spot, so I would fold river. 87 gets there as well. Flop sizing should mostly be smaller to me, with this hand.

I just hate the way this hand is played.
If you think he raises flop light then x/c rather than bet.
If you think he doesn't raise flop light then bet/fold is good.
But bet flop v aggro player then call down TT which almost never improves is just spew.
Would you bet/call down 89? It's all but the same hand in practice v his range but 89 improves way more often.

I agree, probably a spew vs the population, but could be ok vs maniac who bluffs every draw on every street.
TT never improves but is it far in strength from top pair here? What would you do w/ KQ for example? Thanks.

it's not so much about strength NOW but vulnerability to future cards and chance of improving on those cards.
KQ is significantly better than TT in both of those areas. Mid PP are basically a horror show for multi street bluff catching.
