JJ vs ....? 10NL 6max

[ZingZhang]

No reads on villain as such, he's tight, but over just 40 hands so :S, however I was fairly sure I was against something bigger than JJ throughout the hand. On the other hand, I'd had 99 and 88 in the previous 3 hands, so may have been seen as getting a little 'too' active pf and he had the button.

That said, I definitely felt I was beaten pretty early on, but have a really tough time laying down overpairs, even when I 'know' the villain has a bigger pair... makes me feel like some dumb calling station [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

So how could I have played it better regarding making the decision when/if to fold at some point without relying on this running straight. Is it right to do so, or too exploitable/weak?
