Villain is LPP but I don't have much confidence in that read.

I'm ready to just fold. Talk me out of it.

You're not good here 10% of the time.

No reason to pay off this checkraise.

I'm not certain you should have bet the river in the first place. Depends a lot on what you think the average LPP is capable of calling down with on this board and whether you will ever get checkraise bluffed here (or by a worse hand for value?). If you feel like you have to call a raise you certainly shouldn't have bet.

My instint from playing a bunch of hands at 5/10 vs loose passives tell me that the bet is correct. I see no reason to pay off the raise, though.

OTOH, I am certain that you should have bet this against this type of player and as einbert said you should fold to the raise.

I was pretty certain that that's how I should play it. My thinking against these players is that there is basically NO chance that I am winning when this happens. I'm just trying to make sure that I'm not making a mistake by wanting to fold here.
