Kinda a goofy hand. Villain is 24/18/.8. No real read just that he makes small raises and he ran his stack up from $120.

I think I like this. I thought of other options, but in the end, this seems the best.

i think im firing again on the turn, looks like im trying to get him off something like QQ or KK.

Do hands like QQ and KK not fold to 100 but fold to 220?

I think his range includes lots of weak aces which will call a pot sized bet.

yea this bet seems ok. i think johny might be right though that KK/QQ/JJ are folding to $100 and you dont need to risk $220. i dont see too many people raising preflop with an ace then checking it down all the way, seems like an underpair that's scared of the ace to me. though i guess you would know better about what he gets to the river with since you're playing with him

I don`t think it`s worth it even if villain turned QQ face up. By overbetting the river like this you offer villain the additional incentive of feeling like a genius when he snaps off a bluff. Betting 3/4 of the pot is better than this imo but checking behind is probably best.
I like bluff overbets in general much more against good players against which you have a history.
