Default Big Blind, tough river...

Ok... so it's the .02/.04, 6 man, max $5 rooms on Titan, and i've been playing aggressive from position a lot...and i get the monster of K6 offsuit in the Big Blind.

UTG limps in...

UTG has been my problem since i sat, and being on his right has made it even harder. Every time i have a hand, i raise the same as when i don't...but somehow he's managed to pick the perfect time to play back and the perfect time to get out of the way.

He also bets like 5 times the pot every time he bets. I never get to see any of his hands because we all fold constantly. He takes down most of the pots he's in with these bets, and it seems way to often to be picking up a hand 6 man.

so...back to the hand, UTG limps in...
Button limps,
SB limps,
Me in the Big Blind checks with plans of check folding without hitting at least 2 pair.

So the flop comes -- 3s 6c Jd --

Ok...so i hit a pair of sixs, but with 4 limped hands, i figure from this position, this hand is still in check fold mode.

It checks around to the turn -- 6d --

Hey, a great card. I decide to lead out for 3 bbs (Pot is 4bbs)

The guy that always seems to be a step ahead calls. Other two fold, and the river is dealt -- Jc --

So crap...i'm ahead of every hand except one of the two jacks.

So i decide that if i bet, the hands that call me are only the jacks, and the sixs to just split the pot. Considering a check here could induce a bet...and figuring this guy loves to WAY over bet....he might make checking certainly profitable...

Until...

Hero (BB) checks
UTG pushes all in for $5.90 (which i have covered at $7)...

Ok...so this could be a bluff, then again...i have never seen any hand he's over bet like this.


Right now, i've got 4 big blinds invested in this hand, and now risking 147...


What's the plan?

Fold.

He's not bluffing for that much of an overbet.

If he is, you'll get him later.

FOLD in a heartbeat. This is rarely a bluff at this level.

Even though he's been betting like this at least half the pots he's been in?
