Villian is one of the better regs at 100NL Zoom.
He's aggressive, but I haven't seen him do anything insane. Also haven't seen him make the mistakes that a lot of players at these stakes do.

Standard call. No reason to 3-bet, especially deep.

Even though it connects better with the raisers range, he's going to fold here a lot, because I can easily have a pair, flush draw or gutshot.

Thought about betting, but then I remembered a hand Phil Galfond played against Jungleman.
He said that he didn't really like barrelling a naked draw again on a board with little fold equity, knowing you only have 18% equity when called (a little more because of the gutshot), and because you uncap your range and have the ability to raise some rivers.

Since we checked the turn, and he always has at least a pair, I think he will value bet here pretty often.
Our flush is a little disguised, and just calling is too weak, in my opinion.
But then he jams!?!
He never jams a Qhigh flush for value, so he has to have the K high flush. That means he'd have to check a pair+flush draw on the flop, which I pretty much never see him doing.
I do think there's a decent chance he check-called the flop with second pair, and is now turning it into a bluff, knowing I can't call him because of his nutt blocker.
He tanked a little before jamming, for what it's worth
