Default Fold to that river bet?

Over the last few thousand hands I have had a fold to river bet rate over 80%. Ugh. While a lot of that is due to just running bad (getting checkraised on the turn by a passive player when you hold a strong draw and contintualy bricking the river gets very old very quickly), it has been a flaw of mine to fold to too many river bets.

To wit, three hands:

[/ QUOTE ]Hand 1 -- SB is 30/20/3, one the tighter side of LAG. Has a tendency to semi-bluff even thin draws HU and suck out hard. The CO is a dooooooonk, at 56/10/1.5 and has been known to make some insane plays on both ends of the spectrum (he's called me down with the nuts, and bluff checkraised while playing the board). Unpredictable and stupid.

[/ QUOTE ]Hand 2 -- Kind of a weird villan, at 22/8/4.5. Obviously tight and not that aggro pre-flop but aggro post-flop. Might just be an anomoly due to being cold-decked.
