Default A fold I should make more?

I open on the button, blind calls. in 50 hands he's 66/6. Agg doesn't mean anything useful in 50 hands. In other hands he's called all the way with second pair on a 3flushed flop, um. that's the only hand I can remember off the top of my head.

So I open with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], he calls.

flop is K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

he checks, i bet, he raises, i 3bet, he caps i call.

turn is an 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

he bets, I fold.

Against an unknown, I do not think this is a fold. In other words, an unknown player, I think, can take these actions with a worse hand than you.

But frankly, I'm not sure how to interpret your remarks about the player.

What worse hand would an unknown play this way often enough to justify showing down?

Because you don't know what kind of a read those actinos should produce? or because I was rambling and incoherent?

No, I think it's because I don't know how that read would translate into action in this hand. Also, I'm not a "numbers guy" at all.

As for worse hands that could call, I think some people would take the actions of the villain here with a smaller pair.

If you plan to fold to a turn bet, should you instead fold to the flop cap? He is always going to lead the turn, and I don't think we have odds to chase 2 outs on the flop.

I try when possible to provide more relevant info about the player than a read like "lag" or whatever. Especially if I'm not 100% about what most of their actions mean/will be. This was basically the info I was going on when the hand took place. Also i guess 60/6 didn't feel complete, I wasn't ready to classify him as a passive monkey calling station yet.

I think you have to call this down.
