Default 2-5 NL. Confusing river action

Effective stacks $500.

Villain in the hand is a friendly guy who plays a lot of hands. He is running well and likes to call down. We have been chatting for a while prior to this hand.

A couple limp, a guy in MP raises to $20 and 6 people call including me on the button with 22.

Flop comes A Q 7 rainbow and is checked around.

Make it $180 or so on turn and move all your chips into the pot the next time you are given the chance. You say he likes to call down. Let him.

As played on turn, raise more on the river. You didn't say if he was (very) passive, but if he is, just call his reraise.

I know I should have raised the turn. Fancy syndrome, but Sb picked a lovely time to try a little turn bluff with 43. I just called.
