this is why the fold is confusing to me [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img], and why i would have checked the river and probably lost the hand [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

I have a tough time putting villain(with his stats and the the call from BB) on anything but JJ or QQ.

Which is exactly why we need to be capable of firing every street without a monster, no?

QQ is a monster to these people and they will likely call with it. And like flawless said, if you want to try and fold it out you need to bet more.

I run into this same problem. It absolutely infuriates me and I end up losing lots of money to people that play like this. Usually its a player who is tight like this player and who has the ability to show some aggression ... but who doesn't really think hard about their play.

For instance, I play against someone like this in a regular live game and after losing a hand to him (which played out like this one ... he turned over TT at the end and I missed my overpair) I asked him why he played it like he did. To which he responded "because you're aggressive and were doing a great job of betting it for me. I figured you had overs." I wanted to scream at him for not being able to think that I had JJ QQ KK or AA ... but I didn't. It seemed like such an idiotic statement.

Now, I adjust my play to guys like this and don't try to bluff them off a hand. The good news is that if you hit, you'll get paid by them every time.

It sounds to me like you are bad at poker, and your opponent is good at poker.
