Hello everybody!
Here is a hand I played yesterday at everest. As you can see villain has maniacish stats. I really didn't want to see a 7,9 or Q on the turn, so I decided to pot it on the flop. Unfortunately the 9 showed up, and I decided to go for pot control and just check behind, and maybe induce a bluff on the river (which is pretty likely given his stats). His bet was bigger than I expected, but I called anyway, because he might bet this big with a bluf or 2 pair kinda hands. What do you guys think?
Is it best to fold this hand against this potsize bet? And should I have bet the turn for value instead of just checking? Please post your thoughts on this

Is he even capable of bluffing like this on river? As according to the AF we might say that he ain't bluffing a lot on river since he has been winning most of the showdowns. Therefore I might even just give it up on river. But otherwise seems to be fine. Worst card on river.
