Villain is 33/8/1.4 through a little over 100 hands. His postflop play seems fairly straightforward if maybe a tad loose and passive. Am I making a mistake folding this turn? Should I be calling the flop raise and raising a safe turn in this situation instead of 3-betting the flop?

Preflop: Hero is CO with K, Q.
5 folds, Hero raises, 2 folds, BB calls.

BB checks, Hero bets, BB raises, Hero 3-bets, BB calls.

Turn: (5.25 BB) 3 (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB raises, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 8.25 BB

Good laydown. I've never seen a double check raise with a hand that you beat.

Especially since villain looks to be a donkey

What was your table image? Sometimes even LPP's will be creative after the 4th time in a row you stole their blinds. But I agree, a double checkraise in most cases has you beaten.

Yeah, I'm a little surprised to see the double check raise be successful. You can be sure he's on two pair or a set. I hate playing the blinds.

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
