$1/$2 game against crazy Russians...Villain is a huge whale running in god mode...He's called 20xBB reraises preflop with JTs (and won
), in another hand called a huge flop bet on a JTT board with 76s and hit runner-runner for a flush...won a huge pot by caling $25 preflop with 65o, flopping the nuts and cold-decking the guy who turned top set...you get the idea

There's a $5 straddle, villain calls, 2 others call, I raise to $25 on the button with KhKd. all fold except villain.

Flop is AA5, 2 hearts...Of note: cutoff pretty much announces that he would have flopped a boat but he folded to my raise.

Villain leads into me with $20....I call....turn is 6h...he bets $40, I called...river is 2h for nut flush on a paired board...he bets $50.

am i doing anything other than calling each street?

You didn't say how deep you were - but that's a fairly small raise pre.
Without any more information, I think calling down is fine.
Have you seen him donk before? - With that sizing I suspect it's either a blockbet with a draw or a small pair. It also depends if he has a tendency to hero call a lot - raising KK on that flop is kind of fancy - you represent an ace and hope to get him to bluffcatch with some pair or shovel a draw.
If you only have 150 or so left on the river, I'd shove.
I wouldn't be surprised if he shows up with 44, 55-QQ here

I started the hand with around $360 and villain had about $600.

standard open raises at the table ranged from $7-$15...raises over limpers were generally $20-$25...3-bets were in the $40-$50 range.

i had not seen him donk but mostly he was fishing...catching on the river. he hadn't shown any hands where he flopped a monster and donked into a raiser.

I ended up minraising and gave a little speech....i thought it was a mistake immediately as i put A-little squarely in his range....

It was a good night, which shows you how wacky it was when you lose a $400 pot in a $1-$2 game with the nut flush and come out way ahead.

I like call/call/call since he doesn't have a fucking clue how to bet.

I might go all-in on the river if I don't think he's got it.

I'd give him the weak ace... doesn't look like he's trying to get rid of you on the river though, if it was me it would all come down to my read of him... i.e. does he look like he has a MONSTER full house, is he donk enough to pay me off on a heart board with trips?... probably yeah just a call coz not that much value to get out of lesser hands with a heart board, might have a full house. What happened?
