Good spot to bet/3bet bluff?

SB is a tightish 20/3 and a pretty weak tight player overall. Doesn't play many hands and I just cbet him to death.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

BB ($59.85)
UTG ($114.65)
MP ($64)
CO ($27.30)
Hero ($71.25)
SB ($72.60)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls $0.50, 1 fold, CO calls $0.50, Hero raises to $3, SB calls $2.75, 1 fold, UTG folds, CO folds.

Flop: ($7.50) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $4.5, SB raises to $9, Hero...

I think I could rep an overpair here since I don't think he plays loosely enough to have a 4 here. I've never seen him min-raise before so that's kind of weird too. I've been playing pretty TAG and in my current session on this table now a 3bet here would almost always mean a made hand. Any thoughts on this play?

no. WT tight player check minraises you, and you have to represent an overpair for him to fold? no thanks.

Disregard please. I missread the post.

With your read, this is a clear fold. You say he is weak and you value bet him to death. Now he is laying a move on you. Just believe him. He has a pair of deuces beat. Don't blow all your previous value bets on a bluff that is unlikely to work.

Preflop, btw:
Actually I limp behind with 22 trying to hit my set. I might raise against a single limper but against two, it's mostly spew with 22, imo.

I see tight players doing this with AJ and overpairs. He might fold AJ but 3-betting is too risky. Fold.

I'd fold.
