Default 0.50 NL- 4 Bet Jacks Out of the Blind

I just started playing 6-max NL, transitioning from so-so results at full ring-
I've been playing 20/ 13/ 2.5 and generally don't get out of line.
Villain is about 16/14/4.75- seems rather nitty. Over 650 hands.
Should the 4 bet have been bigger or not at all?

Poker Stars, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

BTN: $41.20
SB: $20.30
Hero (BB): $102.65
UTG: $13
CO: $48.85

Pre-Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BB)
<font color="red">UTG raises to $1</font>, <font color="red">CO raises to $4</font>, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $9</font>, UTG calls $8, CO calls $5

Flop: ($27.25) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $18</font>, UTG calls $4 and is All-In, <font color="red">CO raises to $39.85 and is All-In</font>, Hero folds

Yuk. CO must have a pretty bigh hand to raise an UTG raiser. I'm not 4 betting this OOP versus this villian his range is TT+ imo. I'm probably just calling for setvalue.

And I don't like ur 4 betting size. It's pretty small..

I haven't played 50nl but methinks overcall but don't necessarily play for set value. Either c/c or b/f flop with that line. Don't stack off. I think yout fold was good.

Call pre. 4-betting vs a nit's 3-bet sucks. Your 3-bet size sucks as well, 12 would be better.

If you're going to 3-bet preflop it should be with the intention of getting it in on good looking flops like this, otherwise you're basically saying that you turned your hand into a bluff preflop. Your probably screwed though so folding is ok.

What you know about UTG? He has a 26bb stack so chances are he is a donk and CO is iso-raising him in position. In that case I wouldn't mind your 4bet (just make it bigger).
I dont respect min-raises from shorties too much (mistake? :P)
If CO won't make such a play, just call pre imo (not for set value alone but for flops like this).
Flop play seems quite good.

Thanks. I don't know why I 4 bet so small, but oh well. I was pretty shocked to see the CO show 10s.
