Default Reraised with a suited connector preflop. Like it or hate it?

Villain is a semi-loose aggro player, raising 15% or so of his hands preflop in this $100NL 6max game.

x: -- --
Villain: -- --
x: -- --
Hero: 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
x: -- --
x: -- --

Pre-flop:
Villain raises to $3.50. x folds.
Hero re-raises to $12. x folds. x
folds. x folds. Villain calls.

Flop (board: 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]): (Str8 flush draw)
Villain checks. Hero bets $15. Villain calls.

Turn (board: 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]): (Nuts)

Villain bets $25. Hero goes all-in for $73.
Villain calls.

River (board: 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img])

Several factors needed to line up in order for me to raise there. Like: Opponent's PFR stat is over 10%. If it's too low he probably raised with a great hand. Also, I must be in position and have a tight image. Also, the opponent must be full-stacked. Re-raising a smart opponent who raised UTG is not good, since UTG raises are usually great hands. No good player is going to raise QJo UTG...

Only thing wrong with this hand is the size of your flop bet, I'd probably bet full pot for FE and because we're ahead of pretty much everything so wanna get money in.

I like this all round, but I wouldn't do this everytime I get a SC as we lose fold equity if we 3 bet too lightly.

I also bet the pot on the flop. VNH.
