Villain is a 25/20/6 after 180 hands. Seems decent.
Preflop could go either way. I will 3bet sometimes, flat sometimes.

Flop I decided to defend by check/calling. I would check/raise either the nut-flushdraw because it blocks AK and AJ value hands from villain or very weak flushdraws like 43s, 64s, that also have backdoor equity.
Folding on this flop is not ok imo.

Turn I hit and decided to go for the check/raise. I'm sure TP hands with a flushdraw can call us here. KJ calls, sets calls. Standard imo.

River is a blank imo. I block QT which is the str8. I decided to bet big, doesn't make much sense to bet small because I don't have any mid-strength hands like TP at this point.
And then he shoves. I can't fold the Q high flush at this point, although this line looks so so strong.
Ideas?

Seems a pretty standard hand. You could think of check/raise the flop as semi bluff.
River I would most likely bet around half pot and call a shove. This way you get most likely value of some weaker hands than only a straight+ hand. On his shove you are committed with only 47bb behind in a pot of 215,2bb if you call and if he has a better flush it's to bad.
