Default TT, should I bet anywhere?

$1/2 6m Absolute

CO seems a bit loose, last hand he cold called my CO raise w/KJo on Button. Not very aggressive postflop over small sample. Have yet to see him raise preflop.

SB hasn't stood out much, but likely loose passive type.

Also, I have been raising probably 1 out of every 3 hands for the last few orbits, so I probably appear to be bullying table, although I have gone to showdown on most of those and won.

I open raise T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in MP, CO 3bets, SB calls, BB folds, I call.

Flop Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB check, I check, CO checks.
I was planning to checkaise this flop

Turn A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB checks, I check, CO checks.
I am now planning on check folding as I assume I am crushed by his range

River J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB checks, I check, CO bets, SB folds, I fold???
Really don't know what to make of the situation here. CO has played it very strange. Any reasonable 3betting hand has me beat here however, except perhaps 66-88.

Any thoughts on this play or alternative action you might take?

Small pot (4.5BB) and you are crushed by his range, just let this go.

And I play it the same, go for c/r on flop, and on that turn I am check folding.

I just c/c and play WA/WB on the flop.

You still play WA/WB on that turn if he had fired a continuation bet on the flop?

I don't like the idea of check calling as this is not a WA/WB situation. WA/WB requires that both of our hand values won't change very often. His likely range here is bigger pairs or overcards to our pair, so he is WA or likely has 6 outs plus a backdoor draw.

Checkraising this flop should yield some information about his hand strength, especially if SB calls in between.

really not much more you could do... after flop gets checkd through the hand plays itself IMO.

This is so wierd that I may call the river.

Why dosen't he bet the flop or the turn?

Obviously no Q and no A. Either he's getting jiggy pre flop with a hand like 88 or he has hit trip Q and trying in vain to reel you in but seems unlikely.

The only card left is the jack and I'm not folding for the chance he has a jack.

From the way he played it he could have 55,66,77,88,TT JJ or KJ.

Sometimes I give up trying to read these people and just pay off in thin situations.

I can't think of any other hands that fit this odd betting. pattern.

So you're getting 4.5 to 1 and you beat over half of the above hands?

Am I paying off too much?
