c-c c-c
call him down light couple of times and hes going to calm down.

B/F without a doubt.
For 1 he may check behind with a draw which would be pretty nasty, secondly if he bets half the pot so say about 12 and you cr to 40, if he pushes your likely crushed and if he calls then your left with situation where you have about a psb on the river and a lot of nasty cards can hit. What happens if a Jack, queen, ten hits or what about a heart, what do you do then?

cr would be pretty bad unless you have a rather specific and unusual dynamic. cc-cc.

Why would you possibly c/r if you suspect him of floating?

checkraising and bet/folding are both pretty gay here. If you already think most of his range is floating air or floating wacky draws then just let him do the betting and call him down. I don't know what's much better than autocalling 2 halfpot bets on turn and riv in a spot like this. You dont even have to take him to town, he's providing his own wagon.

Yep. Hop on the back of his wagon and watch him take himself to valuetown.

don't c/r, either b/f or c/c. given this player, i would c/c. against a passive i would b/f.

thanks for all the answers

i was afraid of c/c because of all the scare cards that could hit the river and i wanted to charge his draw the maximum if he wanted to do that, but i'm just isolating myself with hands that beat me and he folds his bluffs right?

how often do you call the river when a scare card hits(heart, J, Q, 10) and he bets half pot?
