Default Wild overbet on the river -- 5-10

HU NLH 5-10

I have played with Villain a couple of times before. I know him to be a generically bad player (e.g. calls too much with the second best hand, makes dumb bluffs, doesn't pay enough attention to position, etc.), but I have never played him HU. We each have approximately $1K in front.

3rd hand in the session, Villain minraises to $20 preflop on the button. I assume that this raise doesn't mean much HU. I call with 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Flop comes A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I lead for $25. Villain calls.

Turn is a brick. I check. Villain bets $30. I call.

River is T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], completing my flush. I figure that Villain will expect me to value bet if I have a flush, so I overbet the pot for $200 and hope that he looks me up with an A or two pair. Instead, he pushes. Call or fold?
