Just entered table, no specific reads yet but could the aggression show a set or should I just 3-bet river and call caps ?

I like the call, you might lose to a full house or a higher flush. The problem is that you cannot fold and if you raise while behind, you will lose 2 bets. If you raise and are ahead, you win only 1 more.
Therefore you must be really sure that you are ahead to do this raise and I wouldnt be on this board.

I'm not familiar with the game, but seems good to me.

posting blind: yes

edit-is your question whether to bet? or whether to 3bet?

yeah i have to three bet this one and call the capp. they'll do this often enough with just an ace (or less) to make it worth your while.
