Villain is 22/16/2 over 450 and is not dumb. I made this river bet for multiple reasons :

An Ace will probably call and fold for much more.

He may bluff raise with a missed flush draw or whatever it was he was raising w/ on the turn.

If he is filled up we are getting all in anyways so it doesn't matter how the action goes down since he only has 3/4 PSB left in his stack.

Is this good.... no good?

About pushing the turn, since CO is not dumb, he will never call us without at least a Q, so I didn't think there was much value in it. I guess I could have to protect against the flush draw in retrospect.
