TPWK vs Checkraise on flop vs tight/aggro. iPoker 20$turbo

Opponent calls 53% oop, checkraises 60% (although small sample size, 41 hands total). I never saw him doing that with that big size. I had no idea what to do tbh, and have no idea if i should shove flop vs all the draws? Fold flop? Turn play I expected him to continue and shoved because i felt he commited himself with all his draws  $20/$40 No Limit Holdem • 2 Players Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BBVillain$1890.00  BTNHero$1110.00  Effective Stacks: 28bb Pre-Flop ($60.00, 2 players) Hero is BTN Hero raises to $80.00, Villain calls $40.00   Flop ($160.00, 2 players) Villain checks, Hero bets $80.00, Villain raises to $300.00, Hero calls $220.00   Turn ($760.00, 2 players) Villain bets $380.00, Hero goes all-in $730.00, Villain folds   Final Pot: $1870.00 Hero shows Hero wins $1870.00 ( won +$760.00 ) Villain lost -$760.00

Even though it's a small

Even though it's a small sample I think you can assume that opponent is bluffing a lot of the time (or being aggressive with middle/bottom pair and draws) so I think I'm happy to play a big pot here. So I like your flop play.The turn's an unpleasant card as he might now have two pair, a straight or just some extra equity but if you're going to continue I think a call is better, as there's a good chance he will shove any river card.If he has you beaten or is drawing he'll call your turn shove anyway, but if you call I think he shoves any river card. This will allow you to get the equity from his bluffs, which will just fold if you shove the turn. If the river completes a draw you can think about folding. Basically he seems really aggressive, you're in position, you have a decent hand, and I think it's a good idea to let him bluff at you and not give him an opportunity to escape with an easy fold. Of course a lot of the time you just have a worse hand but never mind, that's always a danger against an aggressive opponent.
