After the action on the flop he will most definitely have the range advantage with a lot of 2 pair, trip 7s, quads and full house combo's.

Calling the river reraise really depends on the player type. You could get value from missed flush draws, but raising the flop with a flush draw I don't really expect to see often (especially after the board pairs on the turn because flush draws are potentially drawing dead).

Lets for a moment assume that he's playing this line with all his two pair or better hands, and all suited ace of hearts combos. Calling is profitable since you have 37.5% and you only need about 25%. If he's betting his missed flushes at a 33% frequency, only bluffing with Ah4h, Ah3h, Ah2h, you're losing slightly with a 23.08% equity.

So basically you'll need a read that he's overbluffing missed draws. Otherwise, you're losing money on this call. As I was recently reminded by myself, not overcomplicating the micro's helps a lot. When they show strength, they tend to have it. When they show weakness, they tend to be weak.

Just a side note, but calling the river here with the ace of hearts would be a 100% no here because blocking his flush draws would mean he only shows up with a very nutted range here.

And the last side note, always consider your line after a potential reraise before you decide on bet sizing. If you're going to call a shove anyway, it's always better to just shove yourself. That way you benefit from the maximum fold equity of your stack.
