Default NL50 - TPGK facing aggression

Villain is 17/9/2.5

Do I fold to his raise on the flop because of his stats? He knows I have been very aggressive. Should I raise?

Poker Room skin
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $48.20
Hero: $53.35
Button: $242.70
SB: $44.45
BB: $30.50

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $2</font>, 2 folds, BB calls.

Flop: 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($4.25, 2 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $3.5</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to $10</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero ???

Fold- he's either bluffing or you are way behind. If you raise you have no fold equity either because he's not that deep.

I didn't realise this was such an easy fold. I have been aggressive so I thought he may have thought I was cont. betting.

All you have is TPGK, your hand is unlikely to improve, and while a sound hand, you can't handle any more heat. Let it go, there will be many other opportunities to get your cash in.

Isn't this the flop Hero is expecting to see with this kind of a hand? Can't we call one street and evaluate on the turn?

Not a raise that big, without draws. Things probably won't improve on the turn, and Villain may fire.

To call is spew, you must fold.

depends on how i'm feeling, this player is semi-aggressive, but only plays top hands, have you c-bet almost every hand your in? sometimes i raise on dry flops like that with nothing to a c-bet from a solid player who i know can lay down hands-- if he does this more than once, i think we can catch on and adjust, i understand your thinking but the first time a tight player plays back, just fold IMO and be ready to play different if he keeps it up
