1. According to recent advice, I played my made hand as aggressively as possible from as early as possible. At the turn, I am still going to have the best hand most of the time, I think. He could have a set of 5's, slow played Aces (unlikely), Ax, A5, A6, or even AT. The turn betting makes the spade FD very unlikely. The river is a problem. Is the play generally ok, or have I overplayed the turn, and what about the river call? Should I raise here again?

don't 3-bet the turn. After your flop 3-bet his turn c/r shows considerable strength and if we 3-bet we give him the option to cap us with a set. We are essentially loosing 3 bets when behind vs winning 2 bets when ahead.
I simply call the turn and also call the river.

with a good read that he is a maniac or tilting i like your play, but not vs. unknown


Yeah, knowing the opponent is everything I guess. I have no way of collecting stats at the moment, and playing 4 boards, it is a bit hard to keep up with who is what. Default though, as you say, the c/r indicates some strength, and a calldown is proably the best in the long run.
