Everything's fine until the river. Obviously this is the million dollar question. I'd check OOP here on the river. Sadly he comes back with a full pot bet.
I don't know what kind of 3/5 hand he's holding if he's any sort of legit player unless he's got a 9+ PP with it, or like A2, in which case he's firing that flop or raising the turn for sure. I probably call here just because there's really not a lot of reasonable 3/5 in his range. Then again if he's the type that takes BB flops with almost any 4, that coupled with a flop check totally puts 3/5 into his range.
Shitty river. I think it totally comes down to the intangibles. I could definitely fold this though, althought it would defintely take those inter-game intangibles.

Is there any value in raising the turn?

Im a goober. I didn't realize you were in position this hand for some stupid reason.
Depending on the villain tendancies I could justify calling or raising situationall. More likely raising unless the villain is a rock because if you are splitting low right now, there's a good chance AA is holding for high. if you have low, you are on a freeroll. Then again now realizing the position, there is some cause for A35 potential. I would like to think villain would have bet that flop for sure with A35, but he could be half worried about your A2, half worried about being bet/raised, and exhibiting some pot control of his own. So after check check and then his pot bet, I'd be more inclined to call. Then with the horrid river card, I'd probably tank, then call, and if i see 35 just be thankful I pot controlled the hand.\
Notice the overuse of "pot control" though. Not sure if it's a leak in my game or not, but it goes back to how minimizing I try to be in many non-nut situations.
