Default Frustrating as hell, not too much content

OMG I HATE THE &*#$ING MINBET ON THE RIVER. Ok so how do you counteract the river minbet when you know the guy will call like everytime if you raise, and you are positive that he has the best hand? Example Hand:

I raise CO with 99, to 120(blinds 15/30), guy minraises to 210 from the SB, I call. Flop KJT, he checks I bet 270, he calls. This guy is a calling station I know he has me beat and he ISN'T FOLDING. Turn goes check check. On the river he bets 30 chips into the like 700 chip pot? Is the info on what he is reraising preflop with worth the 30 chips or do you fold or WTF DO YOU DO IN THIS RETARDED SITUATION.

Ok I vented I am better now

From what you said, you have to call for the 1/25 times he has 88 or worst!

Call and laugh at him. It is so silly it is funny. I don't see why you are mad.

I think you need to re-evaluate here. You're upset because another player played badly and allowed you to escape this situation without having to lose anything more than 1 bet . . . and you get to see his cards?

FYI - Your flop bet is pretty terrible (only a better hand calls you).

I have no idea why I am mad either, but I like never win here so I am just giving away chips, but I have to do it because of pot odds, and because I want to see his hand and AARRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHH

Note: I have absolutely no idea why I hate this so much, but it just GRATES ON MY F'ING NERVES.

What hands that are beating you fold to this bet (particularly against a calling station)? What worse hands call this bet?

A high folds, Maybe some T's.
All Q's call this bet, and those are hands that I am beating.
