Villain is a maniac that never stops betting for no reason, my question isn't about rather I was ahead or not. In my head the only way he's ahead is in a cooler, just a couple hands earlier he went three streets bluffing with 9-high on a AsQs8d board.
My question is: Is this the best way to extract full value in this spot?
