I like capping the flop with 14 outs to two pair or a flush.

On the turn, I think raising here is spew because there's no point in getting him to fold a worse hand, and he is never folding a better one. His line is heavily weighted towards an Ace and if he has a really good hand like AQ he is going to 3bet. So on the turn I just call.

Once he calls your turn raise, there is no value in betting the river because you are not getting called by a worse hand or making him fold a better one.

If you just call the turn you have a tough decision about whether or not to call the river, but I think you are almost always beat by at least Ax. The pot may be big enough to warrant a call though, esp. as it sends a message that he can't just run you over.
