Is there a way for making more value than I did in this particular hand? Sample of player is low and might be off alot. The guy seems pretty loose and aggressive. But the 'cbet-stat' is low and I was guessing that he might have a good hand also.

PF I defend my big blind with 98s
F flopping a fullhouse and I don't want to scare him off with a donkbet - but maybe already X/R the flop was alright instead of the turn? What do you guys think?
T I 'X/R' this street 'cause I don't want to go to the R out of position either bet for value and he folds or checking and he makes a check behind

On the turn I was convinced he had an overpair or at least equity for making the call.
So ... did I screw up the hand or was there nothing else to be done.

I think you probably extracted as much as you were going to - maybe just calling the Turn may have seen him call a river bet (you certainly couldn't count on him betting the river I don't think). Seems to me that he didn't have much - best to hope for was he was betting a draw and that completes on the river I guess?

I think you played the hand well. It is hard for him to have many hands that call but you tried your best and that is what matters.

i just xr flop as you have to xr at some point and i think its where you get the least credit, also if he has a draw he will almost definitely not fold if you make it 13 or something. i believe that's his most frequent holding, besides a few fd there is a fuckton of oesd/gutshot combinations (assuming hes not just cbetting trash with this sizing)

After reviewing the hand by myself I should probably have taken this line ... I agree
