[9 FO] river brings flush and I have PSB left [9 FO] river brings flush and I have PSB left

Deep in the 109 FO. BB is vietcong01 who is quite famous but I seen him doing some very questionable moves, such as calling a 2.5x raise from SB (UTG raised and had 15BBs) with K7s and c/calling an allin on KJ8hhh board. I have a feeling that he calls very wide from all positions.

So I have top2 and a PSB (95k) left. What is my best move on this river vs this opponent? Thanks

I would like to have some more responses on this.

Is a blocker bet ever an option here for like 20k?

C/c or c/f looks horrible to me.

Shove or b/f. You lose lots of value when you check and I can't see any hands he gets to the river that he bluffs since all his range should have showdown value at this point except KQ and Q9.

First, though it's a minor point (at best), you can get away with a smaller raise pf, keeping the pot smaller. Second, if he calls wide, then he shows up here with less than the flush often enough that I think we just put it in.

B/F seems exploitable to me. And a check is just begging to be pushed out.

Thoughts?

Edit: I guess given history, if you feel he's loose enough, maybe he calls a bet with tpgk, but I still don't think it's the best thing to do.

bet a little larger on the turn, then jam river for value (yes, even on this river card) vs this opponent

Very few people will bluff when hero bets 3 streets, especially half his stack on the river. If you have a read that vietcong01 is CAPABLE of it, then try to pick up a timing tell. I'm sure he won't do it without a lot of thinking about your hand/range. And the only hand he turns into a bluff here is a missed straight draw.

You're absolutely right. But I still think that we can get it in here.

shove for value, if he played a flush draw like this he sucks
