Default 400NL - is this weird? (KQ hand)

villain is Bouge_Todd, a reg at 400NL and 600NL. I have him at 26/19.

How did I play this? It felt so weird folding river, but theres not much I'm beating, is there?

Thanks,
Mike

This seems OK in isolation. Unless you have a lot of history with villain, this seems like way too thin of a bluff (it also seems very unlikely to be a thin value bet you are ahead of).

However, if villain thinks you fold too much in such situations, you need to change that impression since you allow him to push you off of pretty good hands at a very low cost.

I sometimes do bet there, but if he C/r me there that would suck.

sometimes I call the river (with mixed success). To those saying call: what is he betting there that Im ahead of?
