Villain is 22/9 over 70 hands, played aggressively in the few pots we've been in together but he may just have hit a few flops. This was his first donk-bet but also his first chance to donk-bet thus far.
One notable hand: He shoved all-in over short-stackers c-bet with MPWK on Axx board.

If you called the flop I think you have to call the turn too. His range hasn't changed, so keep going with it.

I think I prefer raising (and if possible getting it in) on the flop though. But TBH I'm not sure that's because I'm basically a trained monkey and topset = allin, or if there's actually tons of value there.

Raise. You're only behind to a flopped straight or a flush, and your equity is decent against those hands. Most donks will call a big raise with the naked Ah and will sometimes stack off on the flop too.

I would raise the flop to about $6, and hope to get it in right there or on a non heart or Ten turn.

more than made straights and flushes he might have weaker combos etc.

I took his small turn bet to mean weakness, and so probably a draw, and raised him to $5 (pot ~$6.50, should this bet have been bigger?) and he shoved all-in (without much hesitation), so about $13 more to call.
General consensus is that this was a call?
