villain is 36/1/.46 over about 60 hands

comments on the whole hand are welcome..but I am mainly asking about what to do on this river..

I assume most of you are raising this...if I'm wrong, speak up...

but this mindonk, to me, usually means they are planning on folding to a raise (although I occasionally see a call with high pair, two pair, etc here...and every so often I see a monster from villain and he will be reraising me)...

so what do you think, and based on what villains typically do here, how much would you raise to..I figured I might entice a call if I didn't raise too big, but, then again, I think this raise screams that I'm quite sure I have him beat...it just doesn't really look like a bluff...

thoughts?

BTW, would anyone check this turn and call/bet the river instead?

Against a villain this passive I'll bet all 3 streets and only stop betting if he plays back at me. I think you played this well.
