Villain is 23/20/3.

More importantly, what exactly is villain representing in this hand?

[Jay Riall]

Fold. He has a flush or occasionally a set imo. Normally the nut-flush though.

Any infos on villain besides his stats?
Reads? Tricky player or straightforward?
How many hands for his stats?

Without those infos:
He doesn't seem to be afraid of a flush since he's re-raising a well-sized value bet BIG. Doesn't look like a bluff to me, more like a made hand.

Since his PFR-% is 20 he seems to raise with almost any PP or big SCs.
Maybe he tripped over a flush or a set on turn/river.

Without reads: very hard to say.

Bet/fold the turn and check behind the river.

River play is the most common problem in a lot of peoples game. You've got to realize what hands call on the river. KJ KT? No way, look at his stats #1, now look at the board. For him to stick around on the flop, milk the turn, and then launch on the river i'd say you beat nothing in his range of hands right now.

There is more value in betting the turn than the river.
