Hero checks, UTG bets $30, Hero ???

villain was: 26/23/5
On the flop: I put villain exclusively on 22,55,JJ+,AJ and maybe AK.
My flop call was to allow him to stack off with hands like QQ and AJ on non A,K,Q,J turns
Now on turn we are only ahead of QQ.
However, villain's is pretty small and we have to call, but what do we do on RIVER if villain bets 1/2 or 1/3 pot? I believe we should fold right?
Am im being too nitty?

I'd put the rest in.

3-bet more pre and jam flop

looks like you should have shoved the flop, why just call? now look at the spot he put you in

Yeah, I don't 3-bet as big as Renton, but in this case I agree.
$14+

The extra couple bucks has a pretty big impact on the math, plus you want to make him pay to see a flop against your big pair with position.

Also, bet more on the flop.

$15 pre and jam the flop ez game

Thanks guys!
I could have made things easier by 3bet a bit more Pre.
I see that there is no point to call on the flop trying to stack a weaker hand.
