Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

Hero (SB): $46.16
BB: $43.30
UTG: $10.77
CO: $38.20
BTN: $23.19

Reads: I have been playing for a while against this tight nit. He was playing pretty well and we both almost doubled our stack. His stats:
VPIP$ 12.5
PFR 11.25
Total AF: 2.4

I raise a lot of hands and make standard bets on the flop, so my cbet on the flop can pretty much mean anything, from a set to overcards... and he knows that.

I would really appreciate some insight, cause I just can't get this one figured out. The funny thing was that he used the "bet pot" button on the turn and the river. I know this because when I checked he instantly bet pot against me.

This is a tough one. Its easy to see him with any pocket pair over sevens, but he would probably play a set the same way. I think you should 3bet the flop, it should show you where you're at. I don't like calling turn and folding river, fold turn if you're not willing to call a pot sized bet on river.

I think you're looking at a set. I'd probably re-raise the flop, and fold to a push.

I'd fold the turn as played

I think the Q would have slowed down any mid pp's so I'd put this go on a low set.
