Default My biggest weak-tight play ever....

$50 Party NL

(all stacks approx... though they are proportionately correct)
Hero (sb seat 1) $140
V1 (seat 3) $40
V2 (seat 4) $60
V3 (seat 6) $26
V4 (seat 9) $30

Limited reads: V1 who is a moronic LAG... he minraises any hand he plays in. V4 bought in for $25 and has been fairly passive preflop. In general, the table is relatively passive (save for the minraising idiot)...

v1 minraises to $1. V2 raises to $3. V3 calls. V4 raises to $9. Hero has pocket queens in SB.

Hero folds.

What does everyone think? I'll tell you my thoughts and everyone can call me a wuss or whatever...

What I liked about my hand:
1) I have queens.
What I hated about my hand:
1) I'm out of position
2) though the first raise is almost negligable, the hand has been 3 bet by someone who I haven't seen do that yet.
3) Stack sizes: Because of the size of the three bet, I'm not going to have pot odds to play this for set value against this player should it go heads up. Its either all in or fold. But if I go all in, I'm likely to be called only by 1 of the 2 hands I fear is out there...
4) If v2 (2nd raiser who reraised from UTG+1) or v3 (who smoothcalled 2 bet and, note, has a smaller stack) like their hand enough to play, then I see a likely all in
5) considering the stack sizes of V3 and V4, I assume regardless of the flop, if either of them are in the hand preflop and don't go all in, one of the other is definitely pushing on the flop.

I really thought the only thing that I would feel comfortable with on the flop is a set. Since a 3rd bet was rare... the odds that I was ahead seemed pale.
