In retrospective:
Prob should have check-raised the flop.
Not sure the river bluff was good due to alot of ax in his range. But his small bet sizing screamed weakness

The guy min4b pre flop and fire 2 str on an a high board and you decide to donk shove the river? This is a punt. The puntiness being even more extreme given that he calls with what he had.
Just x/f rvr - hell, you might even be good with k high against this buttonclicker
Yep, don't bluff against fish when they represent a strong hand.
I def made the wrong decision against this type of opponent.
I'll def try and not make this mistake again.
