Hi!

This is missplayed quite severly.

First...preflop I cant really make a good argument for 3bet...sure he is wide but OOP you dont really want to spew against overagro players,especially if there is 3rd guy already in the pot. If you think they are both bad(which is possible scenario here) I wouldnt mind calling...this way you keep pot small which enables more option for postflop play which is very good aspect when OOP...also just folding is far from bad.

Flop...as played bet is ok but 3bet is out of line....this as default is a calldown scenario. If he is on a bluff you let him hang himself and if he has Ax...which is highly likely then you are pretty much boned.

As played turn bet is fine....3bet is debatable. There are not many worse reasonable hands that normal player would play like that.... maybe AK....on the other hand there are sets,higher two pair which are far more likely than anything worse...so vs normal play its a calldown. If you have seen him spewing too much then 3bet is possible but I need a solid read for that...just fact that he is loose preflop doesnt say anything about his postflop play.

River is clearly overplayed unless he is a maniac...I would c/c...you only beat spews at this point.
