£20 NLHE 6-max: Would you play this more aggressively?

FThere really isnt anything wrong with the way you played it.its more a cade of finding a way to get his stack rather than just being aggressive. You gave him the opportunity to donk bluff off all his chips on the river but his stats suggest he is too good to do that.
I do notice you dont have an aggression stat posted. Having this stat available to you here would assist the decision whether to call or raise the turn.
I think raising the turn may have been a bit better. You have a big hand in the circumstances. Big hand big pot rule applies and he has shown every inclination to being reasonably strong so keep pumping chips in. If he is drawing even if we think it unlikely he will call a tun bet but not call on the river if he misses. I know he didnt have it on the end but he could have had something like KdQd could he not here? Also as played the flush card arrived he may have had you on the same hand and refused to pay off a flush. In the end get the chips in before a cooler card arrives and kills the action.

I was sort of in a "duel" with this Villain who lost a big pot to me and a few small pots a few hands earlier. His re-raise on the flop doesn't look very strong to me maybe he is finding out where he is with AK/AQ? Or maybe he is just trying to outplay me in frustration? He is almost never on a flush draw here.

Now I am 100% he isn't on a flush draw after the turn bet so should I shove the turn or not? I thought about it but was like surely he is pot committed anyways isn't it? He insta folded the river which he surely couldn't do with AK so he was probably folding a turn shove as well.

What I would really like to know is what would you have done on the flop and then what would you do on the turn if you did what I did on the flop?
