I have no info on Villain but my read given the way he has played this hand (particularly with the min check raise on the turn) is that he is a fish and has binked a strong hand or is possibly trying to 'slow me down' with like AJ. My guess is that he is strong though with a non-nut hand like KJ/33 or even a small flush.

What size bet are you looking for here? I think standard here is like $16/$17 maybe even $20 but I really feel like overbet shoving and letting him make a bad call. Alternatively I don't want to overbet and give him an opportunity to make a big fold so I'm not sure.

Thoughts and reasons please?
