Default Is this an awful fold?

Villian is 34/20/1.5. Thats all the info I have. Is this always a call? I thought for sure he had a set just by how the action played out.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Button ($80.50)
SB ($296.10)
BB ($99.94)
UTG ($139.20)
Hero ($663.05)
CO ($237.75)

Preflop: Hero is MP with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $7</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB (poster) calls $6, BB calls $5.

Flop: ($21) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $12</font>, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $43</font>, SB calls $31.

Turn: ($107) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $91</font>, SB calls $91.

River: ($289) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB calls $155.10 (All-In), Hero folds.

Final Pot: $444.10

You think he was betting the flop, calling a raise, caling a turn bet with J9 or AJ? A bluff doesnt make a lot of sense too, but getting those odds I call.

You're probably beat but this is an instacall. The odds are just too good. I'm more worried about [Ah Jh] or some other rivered hand than a set.

some sort of flush draw that ended up as a straight seems more likely if you are beat or KQ but getting those kind of odds on the river call I just say F*** it and pay him of most of the times but hopefully not so often that calling is -EV [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Only hand that really makes sense is KQ. In fact it makes such perfect sense, that I'm comfortable with your fold. With those odds I would probably call, but I don't think it's a "no-brainer" call.

K8/K5 doesn't make sense for him to be calling preflop, so he can't have that. I think he'd lay KJ on turn. AK as well makes little sense preflop (as he'd reraise). Therefore, the things we are beating are very unlikely.

AJhh kind of makes sense (I think he'd lay that down on the turn also), but we don't beat that either.

KQ makes sense but we lose to that too.

A set kind of makes sense, but we're not winning with that either.

We have to be right 33% of the time (slightly more) to break even, but are we? Is there anything we're beating?
