Low overpair on low flop

I have played with this villain before, but it was a long time ago on nl200. Back then he was at least a standard TAG, nothing special with him at all and I dunno if he has changed style. He should view me as a TAG. What is our plan on various turns (besides an eight)? Is there any rivers (besides an eight) you C/C if you call turn?

Everest Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00/$4.00 (HH Converter by Kreatief)

MP3 ($400.00) (Hero)
CO ($434.80)
Button ($88.50)
SB ($76.00)
BB ($200.00)
MP2 ($400.00)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero raises to $14.00, CO calls $14.00, 3 folds,

Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ( $34 )
Hero bets $25.00, CO raises to $60.00, Hero calls $35.00,

Turn: X ( $154 )
Hero checks, CO bets $110.00, Hero comes up with a plan obviously!

No one? I think this is a pretty common spot, worth to analyse.

there are a lot of Xs that are going to change a lot of things

Meh, if you think he's unimaginative, and maybe slightly bad, you can always bet/fold the turn. I don't particularly like that line, but if you think he overplays worse hands for some reason, it might work out better. It also snuffs out a chance for him to bluff you.

Thing is, I see no reason why he wouldn't have a 4, 66, could be playing a better pair like 99/TT/JJ or slowplaying a premium. I like how you played it and I fold now. If you think he has the balls to exploit, call him down. In a vacuum, fold.

agree w/ arturius except the donking turn part

Yeah, good analyse. I was thiking in the same lines and opted to fold on turn - turn was 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I think we need a good read to call a villain down.
