Default Overpair Versus Storkdelamork

I don't know much about Stork's game except that he's a multi-tabling regular and presumably a winning player. That's probably all he knows about me as well. I got my stack making a very thin, some might say bad, call pre-flop against a complete maniac donkey who kept shoving his stack anytime someone raised his blind, so maybe he thinks I'm a bit loose because of that, but it was clearly a unique situation.

(Sorry, I don't have the HH)

I've got $1450, Stork covers. He limps UTG, UTG+1 limps, I pot it to $55 with red KK, only Stork calls.

Flop J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Stork thinks for a bit and leads for 90. I call.

Turn 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Stork bets 290. I was pretty torn here, as a call leaves slightly more than a PSB in our effective stacks. I contemplated both folding and shoving, but ultimately just called, intending to call a non-spade river. I'm very curious for thoughts on this decision.

River is an off-suit 8, and Stork checks. Do I check behind or shove for value?

I'd check behind. I have no knowledge of the player though.

For the value shovers, what does he call with other than QQ/AJ that we beat?

I don't see how he can put us on a substantially worse hand than we have if we shove.

Value shove turn. I can't put him on a boat after he pots it, so only a flush beats you now. Once in a while he'll look you up with a J.

As played, just check river I guess, when we flat call his big turn bet he can't really put us on a draw.
