Default Call Down or Raise Fold

The villain was playing almost every hand, c/r bluffing into large pots with multiple opponents, raising marginal hands on dangerous boards etc… Truly awful player and total lag-tard. A losing player in this session, but would catch some boards and drag a few pots. Betting is capped at 4 unless HU before cap on River.

Preflop
Hero: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
1 fold, Villian Limps, 2 folds, Hero raises, folded to BB who calls.

Flop (6 sb): T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
BB check, Villian bet, Hero calls, BB folds.

Turn (4 bb) 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Villian bets, Hero raises, Villian 3-bets, Hero calls

River (10 bb) 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Villian bets, Hero raises, Villian 3-bets, Hero calls.

I didn’t get worried until he 3-bet the 4th heart on the river, but he ended up showing down T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and MHIG.

My question is: against a reasonable player, at what point in the hand to you call down or raise/fold?

I would cap the turn and if he's incredibly aggressive, I'm still raising a river bet.

Your turn/river play baffles me.

Against this guy:

1) I'd raise the flop
2) Cap the turn
3) Raise the river, check his AF again to make sure and if its high enough on the river then cap.


VS a reasonable player though ->
I dont know what you mean by reasonable player, but against a lot of people who are aggressive you can raise-call the river.

why did you call the turn and raise the river?? makes no sense! on the river 8 cards match the board 8 cards bring a fourth heart and there goes your action.
