First off, normally I'd bet out on this flop but this villain has been bluffing a ton in this heads up match. After checkraising the turn, I'd put villain on an 8 or possibly a Q. The river basically kills my hand which was the nuts on the flop. Do I just check/call a small bet here and fold if he pushes? That would seem rather weak. The pot was so big compared to stacks, I wasn't sure what to do.

If villain has been bluffing a ton, I don't get why you aren't just betting this flop. As played, I think I would c/c since he could very easily have a draw on the turn and all draws missed. I would be very surprised if he showed up here with a T, but an 8 is certainly possible I suppose.

I really really hate the flopcheck.

Yah, after the fact, I decided the flop check was not the best line. I bet that flop 99% of the time, not sure why I didn't there.

horrible flop play

Re: need help with river play here
 

He probebly has a Q here, and a draw, its very unlikely he has an 8, unless its T8 or Q8 and decied to slowplay flop. As for the river, if its way under a psb just put it in and hope he calls with Q

checkfold, it seems really unlikely he'd call you with a draw on the turn with the paired board and the size of the call, unless you think he's planning on taking it away on the river... doubtful
