Is it better to donk this turn? or raising the flop to retake initiative?

i think the most interesting thing is the River. if he checks the turn behind he obviously has no ace and also no sets or twopairs. So the question is, what are the hands he would call a bet from you on the river.
Maybe, if there are not so many cards, which he could call a bet, you can maybe think about giving him the opportunity to bluff the ace and/or the queen. but i am so tired now and maybe it is stupid what i write :-)
Hi!
Absolutelly standard river bet. I would assume that bluffs would basically always double-barrell on this turn as it is the perfect bluffy card for him so when he checks I think he is scared with something that has SD value but got afraid of A....in anycase...I think that he will call the river close to 100% but if you check he can easily just checkback again(hands like 22,55,65s,...)...so bet and collect is the best default play.
Fact that he folds river is already telling quite a bit about him. His double barrell will be much stronger since if he is not bluffing on the best possible card then where will he?
