Default Snapping off a bluff? (5-10 deep stack example)

Villian (5k) is a extremely LAGGISH with bad fundamentals but good instincts and player reading abilities. I have him covered.

4 Limpers to me in the cuttoff and i raise with AsKh. Villian (SB) and 2 of the original limpers call. Villian is getting frustrated with me as i have been making many big preflop raises and punishing limpers. I'm almost certain he called with less than a premium hand

pot (~325)

Flop (2s-4h-5c)

Checked around

Turn 6d (2s-4h-5c)

Villian leads out for 100 and it's folded to me. I have a strong feeling he's bluffing and that i'm ahead. If i call, he's very likely to bluff again on the river (he's likely to bet 200-400 no matter what he has). If i raise, he's very capable of playing back at me if he thinks i'm restealing (which he has seen me do many times before).

What's my move?

1/3 pot? is this common? it is probably indicative of the strength of his hand, unless he's been making a lot of particularly donk-ish underbets...

yup...sry

And yes....He's a donkey (as far as fundamentals go) and often underbets...In this hand i think he's bluffing based on a physical tell....My quesiton is, what's the best way to act upon this information?

The problem with just calling and inducing another bluff on the river is that you dont know what's gonna help his hand and you don't want to let him draw to 6 outs for $100.

With the read you have I'd make a 2/3 pot-size raise on the turn.

if you have a physical tell and are confident in it, obviously calling makes most.

online someone betting through 4 players on a 2356 board has me convinced my ace high is no good.

Let him keep bluffing? Yes, he has 6 outs against you (although you may share a card which would only give him three outs) but it seems well worth it to get another bet out of him just to smooth call.
