Default Fold too soon?

Villain is 30/11/1.78 over 190 hands

Poker Stars
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $.50/$1.00
8 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (8 players) hero is MP1 with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">hero raises</font>, MP2 folds, CO calls, 3 folds.

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2SB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">hero bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises</font>, hero folds.

Results:
Final pot: 1BB


I figured with the Q and the J on board and his wide range preflop, I'm beat a lot here. Still, peel one more card and reevaluate? OR is my fold OK.

About the only thing you are beating is an OESD or someone putting you on exactly a AK while they have a pp. If this guy continues to raise your c-bets in these situations you'll want to look him up, but not now.

Yes, good fold. 30/11/1.78 makes me curious but you can't call this.

I think you have to fold. That flop hits a lot of cold calling hands. Basically the alternative is paying 2.5 more BB to win 6. I don't think you are ahead 1/3 of the time here. Plus there are plenty of cards that could come that will make things look even worse.

I like the c-bet and I like the fold to the raise. Nice hand. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
