drew, He WAS on the river when facing the $30,000 bet. It was the first hand and you start with about 650,000 chips so my god , this was EXTREMELY weak tight to lay down that hand to 30,000.

What were the blinds, how big was the pot? Without knowing this, I cannot buy off on your conclusion. If they were playing 100/200 with a $5000 pot, this is a substantial bet and not an auto-call. If they were 5000/10000 blinds, obvious call regardless of pot size.
