Default Yay I have a straight! Wow, that river sucks

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP ($23.65)
CO ($138.90)
Button ($24.90)
SB ($25.45)
Hero ($25)
UTG ($26.85)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls $0.25, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Button calls $0.25, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($1) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks, Button checks.

Turn: ($1) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $1</font>, UTG folds, Button calls $1, SB folds.

River: ($3) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $2</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $7</font>
Final Pot: $12

I tank, and this happens in chat.

Villain: Ive got you trust me
Villain: just fold

Is this villain hitting trips, flush, full house? I was completely lost here. Also, I had my notes open (poker stars) so I didn't see the chat while making my decision. Does the chat change your decision at all?

I dont see too many people making comments like this without a monster. Its reverse psychology. Telling your opponent to fold so that he'll actually call. Could be wrong in this particular hand but I think it's not wrong often enough to justify a call here. The only hand I can see that we beat is AQ, and I think anybody with AQ keeps their mouth shut because they're more than happy just to take down the pot.

'Beware the speech'

Honestly, all we beat here is bare trips.

based on his betting, i think he's holding A/Kd Xd and got lucky after the flop hitting his flush, i still call cause I'm mean't to, and expect to lose 2/3 times here.

"trust me" isn't the most convincing way to convince you to trust him
