What should be my river play here with 2nd nuts?

Posting this because it got discussed in chat box... and have played a lot vs villain in last month and he's not seen any of our hands in the clinic so far! I think I expect and accept certain answers, but we'll see.

Villain is one of the better players at NL10 imo and quite aggressive.  When he calls BvB I'm expecting him to float a lot of flops and try to take the pot away if I show weakness.

Therefore flop call doesn't narrow things down in my head, but feel like he must have something to call the turn as I'd have expected a fold or a raise here - so we're putting him on a draw (FD / QJ or a very unlikely 45) at this stage.

Then I hit my card better than hoped on the river... looking back I hate my sizing here and should have been much closer to pot sized. Really don't know why I sized it so small.

But when facing the raise, what option next?  This completely felt like a bluff (or hand turned into a bluff) or the nuts... against a solid player what hands will call if I raise/shove this spot?

    Shove.

    Its a BDF. Villain will sigh call with worse flushes here.

     Just going by the hand and what you've said river sizing seems alright.

    With what the guy has left behind then I shove. We obviously are not winning every time but we win a lot more than we lose. 

    An interesting question would be had you been an extra 100BB deeper what would be the best play?

    Just call, reraise and fold to shove, reraise and call shove?

    Just calling seems too nitty but if we raise and get shoved we are in a worse spot are we not?
