Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero ($8.66)
CO ($25)
Button ($24.47)
SB ($35.95)
BB ($32.43)
UTG ($24.15)

Preflop: Hero is MP with T, T. CO posts a blind of $0.25. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
UTG raises to $1.33, Hero calls $1.33, 4 folds.

Flop: ($3.26) 8, 5, 2 (2 players)
UTG bets $3, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $6.26

Villain is 18/7 over 110 hands. The table is tight so I was confident it would be heads up. I folded the turn because I felt very strongly that villain had an overpair. Thoughts?

Converter screwed up? I call the flop bet and probably fold a big turn bet (depending on what card that falls on the turn)

Nah converter's not screwed up. I was so used to people raising 2xBB preflop and throwing out 1/4 pot c-bets that this agression kinda threw me off guard, and I put her on JJ QQ KK AA or AK.

Yeah, call the flop, I might even flat-call her down depending on how big the bets are and assuming no overcards hit.
If she bets 6 I get the hell out, although I see no reason why she would bet a KK/AA/QQ so hard with no draws on the board.

You might make a case for raising the flop as well.

flop raise takes out AK-AJ, which is c-betting here. An overcard is going to come about half the time, and any overcard is a scare card for you.

most hands that miss this flop give up on the turn for the $3 we invested on the flop (unless they are real semi-maniac 25nlers)

Fold.
Opp either has the balls to fire a second barel on nothing in which case you offer some credit and fold or more likely has you beat so you fold. AK rarely fires again here and JJ even a possible AJ probably gets scared too.

If they only take this line with very strong hands, I can find a fold here too.

You have $7 behind. You cannot flat call pre flop and fold this flop. If you think she has an overpair, then fold pre-flop you don't have implied odds to hit your set.

Give your stack size, I would just stick it in on the flop.
