banking or future ev play

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRR i dunno why it´s not working :( the hand misses one line and bbcode stops working. :( ok one last try and i will ask a mod to clean it up for me :D hand was played at NL25. villain is a known european regular to me (no russian :D ). hand was played at prime time (around 4am MEZ/10pm ET) i have a bit more than 1k hands of villain (and he should have the same amount of hands for me ;) ). he is playing a solid advanced BSS. he is multitabling 12 tables at regular ring games and 4 tables zoom. he is capable of trapping and bluffing but knows to read a board. he prefers middle pocket over suited connectors for drawing. he is solid in 3-betting pre and also solid in raising postflop. solid showdown stats and solid 4bb/100 winrate. overall good fairly loose regular on that stake. we have some history where he paid me with set vs over set and so far no full payment for his sets vs. my overpairs. he tried some standard reg lines like c/r on flop and even c/r a busted draw on river. Stats for known Players (VP$IP/PFR/AF/#) SB 12/9/3/1.2k Hero 8.5/7.5/9 (Stat is positional obv. ;) ), I cbet Flop around 65% and on a drawy board I make it 3/4pot to go.

My line was either to PUSH or FOLD Pro Push Villains hand is pretty much face up and I´m sure he will call for max value. My range to push would be AA,Kc Kx,Qc Qx, Jc Jx, TT, 99, AxKc, Kc Qc. EV is somewhere around +3.5bb (incl. rake). Pro Fold Only marginal profit. High variance. Bottom of my range. After that hand Villain will know for sure that i´m aware of his ranges/patterns and it´s not unlikely to see him some more times in the future. An open fold would be an additional deceptive element and would make me look fishy. other opinions? hyper exploit? banking or future ev play?...
