Button is 55/8 borderline maniac with 35% WTSD. He chases any draw and calls down with pretty much any piece, and has been on a huge rush. For example maybe 30-something hands ago he called potbets on flop+turn with A2o on 45x flop and x turn, catching an A on the river and winning a decent pot. Then this happened:

Bet more on turn? Block river? I haven't seen him bet this big on the river before, I figured check/call would be cheapest but I might've been wrong. Any ideas?
