Default Crypto headhunter - flopped the nuts

Second hand of $20 headhunter. For those of you who don't know the site, standard is very loose and excrutiatingly bad. For those, who don't know the tournies, prize pool is 50% standard payouts, 50% put on the 'head' of each player so every time you knock someone out you win a little money (and the value of your head goes up).

I recognise villain's name but no reads. If he's played me in one of these, he'll think I'm an iso-shoving maniac.

Default read is that villain's range is more or less anything pf and it hasn't narrowed at all by the turn.

Check and induce a bluff. If it hit 2 of his suit he'll let you know.

Edit: scratch that... thought you were SB... .

No check - you are in position. What is he going to hit on the river to induce him to give you much $$$? If he turned a FD, obviously, have to make him pay now. If he has a PP, are you hoping he hits one of his 2 cards for a set? If he has an A are you hoping he catches one? When you are playing idiots, just play it straight - pun only a little intended.

OK. I think this is misleading. Do you think the assumption that villain has always either completely missed or flopped huge?

I called pf because I have position and I can take the pot away when he checks. I bet 90 when I don't want him to fold (or what to keep the pot small enough for a non-committing second barrel) and 120 when I do.

So far, so good. Now I want him to put some more chips in when he's got nothing, which is all the times he isn't slowplaying a set/rockets. If he's got that, he's calling any bet on the river anyway.
