Default 3/6 - River play?

Villian has been a donator so far at my table. He plays way too many hands and doesn't know when to fold - think of him as a somewhat aggressive calling station. I think his PT stats were something along the lines of 61/18/1.5 over fifty hands.

I am working on my river play - I think I am a little on the passive side and missing some bets. I am pretty sure this is an example of that but want to be sure.

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (4.33 SB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP calls.

Turn: (4.16 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP calls.

River: (6.16 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>

I think this is 3-bet. No way he has quads, and I can't see AA/KK here. There's certainly possibilities that you split, but I like a raise here.

I dunno, I think you will see AA/KK/QQ/TT a fair amount here, and him having A5s is not, like ridiculously far fetched (though FPSly played...). It looks a bit like he had an overpair and was scared of the checkraise from the BB with a paired board, but decided that you didn't have it when the 3rd 5 fell. He's going to cap anything that beats you, as well as any Q, so you are going to end up putting 2 more bets in a fair amount.

alekhine8,

You have to just call. Look at it this way. Most likely its a chop. If you are ahead any non-moron is folding to a 3-bet so you make no more BB's with a raise. If you are behind (to a 5 or a strangely played TT, QQ-AA) you lose 2 BB when you raise and he caps.

Just call.
