What is the point of the flop 3-bet? Just call him down after he check/raises the flop. The pot is big enough to do so on this board.

You can't possibly call the river. What do you beat? KJ KQ AQ AJ are the best hands you beat.

Do those hands (or hands worse than those) play in the manner villain does?

If he was c/raising a flush draw he got there. You can't beat anything!

The flop 3-bet is iffy (you're doing this for a free card I'm assuming?)

I would have called the check-raise on the flop, called the turn then folded river. Or maybe i'm too weak tight

I completely agree with what ShillX said.

Why didn't you post his postflop aggression? Are we just assuming he's a maniac to go along with his maniacal preflop ways. If so, I like everything but the 3-bet on the flop. I'm going in to calldown mode here. (C/R a K or A)

I don't think you should call the river the way hero played it. Calling down from the flop check raise is a good line though, and yes even the river.
