    You're not beating anything IMO and I don't even think it's bluffs very often, but I don't know anything about this particular villian.

    My money is on a house.

    pre flop good maybe a small amount more like £3.10
    flop good
    turn, I just stick him all in because small turn donk bets tilt me soooooooo bad

    river is more a fold then a call

    pre depends on villain, looks fine

    flop sizing is fine but completely readless I'd go bigger

    I would prob raise turn 

    river everything got there, I fold. Would be tempted to call though

    If you do call the turn intending to let him bluff with his missed draws on the river, that does mean you need to be folding if the draw hits. If you can't fold on a bad river card, then get it in or fold on the turn. It's no good giving him the chance to bluff a missed draw if you're just going to pay him off when the draw comes in...

    If he's a good player then his small lead on the turn looks pretty scarey. It looks like he's setting it up for you to shove or to make an easier shove on the river. With that said, why wouldn't he just check to let you bet again? I suppose he might be afraid that you'll just take a free card and then fold if you miss a draw on the river or won't pay him off if a scare card comes.

    If he's not such a good player then I'd shove on the turn.

    As played, I think it's a fold on the river.

    I think the flop bet is just about right, btw.
