Villain plays 55/26 with 13% 3bet. So his range obviously a pretty wide. Think calling pre is the best play. On the flop it's an easy c/c. The Turn gets really interesting. I think it's hard for him to have a boat here. I feel like he will often check his hand back on the Turn so donking seemed to be a good play. Of course I didn't wanna commit fully so I went for half pot bet. I think he's kind of doomed to call many hands to my sizing that I'm obviously way ahead of. If he pots the Turn I think I fold. So plan was to b/f Turn half pot. The River blanks and now we have a decision. What kind of hand can he have. Missed fd is unlikely as we block two broadway spades which would be a huge part of his range. We also block the typical rundown that he can easily have with his high 3bet frequency. He can obviously still have a boat. Ingame I was thinking what does he think that I have here. And I felt like in this spot I should really be polarised. Considering he seems to be on the aggressive side of things I expect him to raise a boat on the Turn and continue all his draws and showdown value. I can be wrong of course but in this situation potting looked great to me. He can hero call with trips or overpairs vs busted flushdraw for example. He can also have a weaker straight T6 or 65 that he can hero. I think if you wanna bet River it has to be pot. That's just my opinion though.
Unlike all my other hands I'll reveal villains hand this time as I was surprised by it. His actual hand made my play so much better but I want other opnions on it as he can obviously have other hands too. I think the whole thing stands on falls on the Turn though.

MP mucks Q♣ A♦ 6♣ 5♦ (a straight, Five to Nine)
Before I forget. Villain is actually up a decent amount of money and he didn't look like a monkey but more like way too lose. So I wouldn't consider him being a fish or anything unless future shows different.
