Looks like he had KQ hearts possibly. He called your huge raise on the turn, and checked the river. If he made a hand, wouldn't he have moved in on such a big pot? I think you have to value bet it here, maybe throw in 3/4 of the pot, he might think his King is good?

I like pushing the best hand, I do it a lot.

I don't like showing down. I don't know about at these stakes, but at my stakes I get a call often enough anyway.

Anyway, I feel like by not showing down many hands, you can get a LAG image without playing a lot of hands. People just feel like you're always pushing them off of hands.
