1/2
8 handed
I sit down directly to the left of Villain. V is a middle aged Asian guy. I only saw him play a few hands where he limped pre and then played aggressively pf. Never saw him show down a hand. Looks like typical asian LAG.

Hero?
1) Is my first mistake raising pre?
2) Is my second mistake checking flop? My reasoning was that he looked weak so I thought if I checked he was the type of player who would bluff the turn. Also pot control/balancing.
3) Is my third mistake calling the turn? At this point I thought that he would've bet an A, Q, or flush draw OTT so his x/r seemed really bluffy to me.
River of course brings the flush. He shoved almost instantly ( not sure if tell).
Can he ever have bluffs here? KJ or JT type hand and decided to x/r bluff and follow through on scary river. Would he bet 87s for value?
