Default Straight Facing Open Push on the River

Villain is running 24/22/8. He is extremely aggressive.

He's been stealing a lot and has fired a lot of continuation bets. I also know he's capable of firing second barrels. My PAHud recorded him as stealing the blinds 60% of the time. So I called this pf to try and slow him down and I was going to float his cbet (I've lately gotten no respect in reraising the cbet) and fire on the turn no matter what.

Well, I hit my miracle gutter on the turn, and I reraise small hoping to seem weak. Well, I was just wondering given the action what you would do on the river? And what you would do on the turn to induce more action? I know he's a thinking player and is capable of moves.

Turbo call. Sucks if he hit runner runner but whatever. This is a set a lot of the time.

he has to raise a set on the turn and your raise is definitely small considering the stack sizes.

flop call is also a wee bit sketchy unless you plan to take it away elsewhere without hitting... which doesn't sound likely vs. this opponent.

Well, I was going to fire the turn without hitting because I felt as if villain was firing a lot of hands. He hasn't shown down a single hand yet, and has chipped up from just pure aggression. I called with the intention of trying to take it away on the turn.

Fold preflop, guess you were floating flop - I prefer fold. Raise turn to 65. As played you have to call river.

fold preflop.
flop is a float so coo.
Turn raise is bad. In a blind versus blind battle people get stubborn for no reason (ie. your preflop call), pop it to $80. You have to understand blind vs blind battles are often such pissing contests that looking weak hints at strength, and betting strong just looks normal. Take advantage of this and get the money in. River is an insta-call. If he has 97 or the flush thats just variance.
