BB here is one of the most toxic players I've ever run across.
I recognize that this behaviour is a way of controlling the table, but even so I was a bit anxious about this hand.
Villain was playing about 70% of his hands at this point, and raising half of them.

PokerStars - 175/350 Ante 45 NL - Holdem - 9 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 36,483
BB: 14,376
UTG: 50,035
UTG+1: 49,856
MP: 7,558
MP+1: 33,705
Hero (MP+2): 35,774
CO: 23,008
BTN: 12,947

9 players post ante of 45, SB posts SB 175, BB posts BB 350

Pre Flop: (pot: 930) Hero has J♥:Q♥:

fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 770, fold, BTN calls 770, SB calls 595, BB calls 420

Flop: (3,485, 4 players) 4♥:8♦:8♥:
SB checks, BB bets 1,750, Hero calls 1,750, fold, fold

Turn: (6,985, 2 players) 7♥:
BB checks, Hero bets 3,632, fold <= sensible bet? Appropriate size?
This Turn bet would have been bet/call so a decent - size raise, bet/fold otherwise

Hero wins 6,985

Would bet around 2.5-3k on turn so if he calls river would be around 3/4 pot shove. Other option is to check and try to look weak so villain might try to bluff river. Depends on your reads. This type of maniac players often like to bluff and they try to look reasons to do it. So check can be very profitable.

Post-flop stats could be usefull as well, but check behind the turn with the intention to let him bluff the river is a good idea. Off course on most rivers I would only call. It will be really tough to get action of worse if you would raise him on the river.

No stats available sadly -- I had never seen any of these players before.

I was expecting him to bluff the turn, or flat and jam the river, as he had lost the top end of his stack with that line.
I would have called had he done so.

I would be thrilled to stack off with this hand if river wont change board whatever line we take.
