does anyone consider re-raise jamming the river for value? If he's tag and slow-plays his big hands, there aren't many 2's in his pre-flop raising range and he's likely checking behind aces and AQ on the flop, right? How often does he c-bet? That might influence leading out with our set and maybe getting it in earlier...

Call river, he has 2x so rarely, but he does have it sometimes
