Hero - $50 - pumped up a buy in and have been playing pretty tag the whole game. Haven't shown down a single bluff all night (not to say I haven't bluffed, just no one knows)
BB Villain - $25 - TAG player, capable of making plays. Solid player who knows his stuff. 6 tables 50nl daily on Stars.

River: A
, 8 , 2 , 10 , 6 Villain bets $3.25.
Do you really think raising this river is necessary/proper? Is flat calling too weak? I checked the flop partially because this player thinks that when I don't cbet that I usually have missed and is willing to put me on a move for the rest of the hand and pay me off if I start to get active (he's also known to stick in a raise when my line doesn't make sense). I just feel like it's possible that the villain might have backdoored a flush. Is a value raise with a fold to a reraise in order?
