Default Re: Bet sizing with the nuts SUPER deep at 2/4

I'd make the standard x3 raise, so make it 240 straight. I know we want to "get his whole stack" but if you get greedy and just bomb the turn even he will realize that it's time to find a better spot and fold. Bet whatever you think he'll call on the river, given his tendencies prolly around 440'ish.

Thinking about this some more, you can also make a good argument for just calling - it's a completely rainbow board so there's just not that many cards that will kill your action and you still have 2 more players to act behind you that can also tag along and bloat the pot... which is very important considering Villain's attachment to pot-sized bets. One thing about guys like this that I've learned is they will betbetbet if they encounter no resistance, but will rarely get into 4-betting wars once someone comes alive and raises, so in this case I'd probably just call and let him keep the initiative given board texture.
