Default 5/5 heads up live

live shorthanded game that has broken down to just us. we've been playing heads up for about 30 minutes and four hours at the full table. my image is tag. villian is tightish and a little off. not a total fish, just has a slight misunderstanding about the fundementals about the game. villian has ~700. Hero covers.

preflop: villan raises to 25, i call in the bb/button w/ 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

flop ($50): 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. villian checks, i bet $45, villian raises to $200. i call.

turn ($450)J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. villian bets $100. i re-raise to $200. he calls.

river ($850):9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Hero...

Hero.... waits for villian to act, and then makes his play depending on what he does. Probably just calling a bet, and pushing if he checks (can't bet/fold due to stack sizes here).... but maybe checking behind if you think he'd go for a c/r. Villian's hand reeks of flush here.

Flop call is fine, since you're likely to get a good bet out of him on the turn, although I would frequently 3-bet.

Your turn raise is pretty bad. He makes a tiny bet into the pot... it looks like he's trying to get a cheap river card/get you to come over thet top of him. In both of these situations, moving in is the play. All-in wouldn't even be a pot sized bet, here.

Definately all in on the turn.

No, i don't like the moderate slowplay depending on your read. I think you are giving him a chance to get away from a hand like 88 or 99, even though i don't understand why he would check the flop. Still I move in on the flop and hope he has something. A bad player might even call off all their stack with 55 or A5 in this case.

If I push the flop, what hands do you think he is calling with?

An all in raise on the turn is not even a pot sized bet.
