    Default Baby Flush, opponent overbets

    Opponent is very loose (vpip > 50% over about 50 hands) and makes a lot of minraises\small raises pf but doesnt look that aggro post flop.
    I should have a TAG image if he is paying attention.

    Whats my river play? Comments on other streets are welcome too.

    I would shove, he could easily have a six or nothing at all and hope to push you off a split. He probably calls a push as well hoping to chop. From his perspective there isn't much to be lost, but if he can bluff the flush he scoops the whole pot. So yeah, I push.

    I just called, he showed A5 and MHIG. I am really too passive on the river

    i think calling is fine. his line looks like a flush draw, and yours is the lowest possible.

    Given that the board has a straight on it and so many worse hands are calling, especially since he is committed to calling with anything hoping for a chop. Somebody with a +50 vpip makes this an easier shove imo.
