Default 5/10NL Semi-Deep...Raise this river?

Villain is a bit on the loose side. I've been playing pretty tight and we haven't played a big pot together yet.

Villain has $1,700 and I cover.

I have 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Villain limps UTG. I limp. SB folds. BB checks.

Flop: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB checks. Villain bets $30. I call. BB folds.

Turn: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Villain bets $30. I raise to $150. He calls.

River: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Villain leads $180. I ?

If you think I can raise this river, how much, and fold to a 3-bet right?

Raising is def. my standard play. Gotta mix it up though.

I don't think the deception gained by calling on flop is worth missing out on big value against a loose/deep player.

save it for handreading-aggro's that fire 3 barrels, the kind of players that won't put you on 2 pair or better just because you didn't raise the flop.

I think with stacks this deep, it's likely I'll be calling a lot of his flop bets with position, looking to steal on the turn when he checks or a scare card hits. The value in this is probably greater than the value of raising the flop here. Showing down a slowplayed 44 will go a long way towards allowing me to steal future pots from him.
