PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (7 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

BB ($19.50)
Hero ($40.45)
MP1 ($24.05)
MP2 ($25.25)
CO ($14.55)
Button ($3.50)
SB ($5.40)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q, Q.
Hero raises to $1.25, MP1 raises to $3, 5 folds

(Uh, oh, VPIP of 8%...this guy is as tight as they come. Probably has AA, KK or AK but I decide to call anyways and see if I can hit my flop. )

Hero calls $1.75.

Flop: ($6.35) 5, 4, J (2 players)

(OK, let's see where I am at...I've got the Q flush draw and if he takes me all in that means he doesn't have a club and wants to make me pay for drawing).

Hero bets $5.5

MP1 raises to $21.05,

(Uh, oh. Just as I suspected...he most likely doesn't have a club and he has either AA, KK. I was in this exact same situation the other day but I had KK and did the same thing. Of course, I lost my stack to the QQ who sucked out a flush on the river. Is it my turn? Is this revenge time? Well, I know I'm behind, but what are the odds that he doesn't have the A or K of clubs and another one will come? Ah, wtf, my ears are growing and I'm starting to "heehaw" like a donkey. Besides, I know 8% VPIP means he is bluffing so that makes this a 100% sure thing...lol).

Hero calls $15.55.

Turn: ($48.45) T (2 players)

River: ($48.45) ?????

Final Pot: $48.45

Results in white below:
Hero has Qd Qc (flush, queen high).
MP1 has Kh Ks (one pair, kings).
Outcome: Hero wins $48.45.

Villain then told me he "read me like a book" and berated me for a while. He was steaming hot mad...man, that felt GOOOOOOOD to be the donk for once.

Renton will become famous soon enough
 Villain played this perfectly on every street. Just goes to show you how little good play is often rewarded in this game.
