This player had limp/called Q-Q UTG earlier in this session, with stats 55/20/3.5 over 70 hands. I thought the 4bet was a good play since i don't like to set mine in RR pots and thought that he could easily be taking a stand.

What do you think of the river shove?

Your 4-bet is huge, just make it $25 if you're going to 4-bet.

Fnord is an unknown quantity at this point

The 4 bet was spew. Now you're this deep in show some commitment and shove the flop.

Since i didn't have significant history or a very good reason to 4bet here, i have to agree i spewed badly PF. I just feel shoving on the flop would be spew too, and now that i think about this hand more if i was going to shove at all the river was actually the worst place to do it.
