Ive been playing lag and villain views me as too loose/agro. Villain runs 36/8/2 over decent sample and seems to be getting frustrated with my lagginess. Anyway, here is the hand:

Hold'em No Limit ($0.50/$1.00)
6-max Seat #6 is the button
Seat 1: flopemnice ($225.00)
Seat 2: Hero ($128.00)
Seat 3: AnlCnt ($138.00)
Seat 4: bighand007 ($78.25)
Seat 5: artdogg8201 ($86.00)
Seat 6: dreamzealot ($101.50)
------------------------------
NEW HAND
flopemnice: posts the small blind $0.50
Hero: posts the big blind $1.00
--- DEALING POCKETS
Hero is dealt [4h,2d]
AnlCnt: folds
bighand007: folds
artdogg8201: folds
dreamzealot: folds
flopemnice: calls $0.50
Hero: checks
--- DEALING FLOP [Kd,4c,Th]
flopemnice: checks
Hero: checks
--- DEALING TURN [4d]
flopemnice: checks
Hero: bets $4.00
flopemnice: calls $4.00
--- DEALING RIVER [5c]
flopemnice: checks
Hero: bets $8.88
flopemnice:, it's your turn. You have 10 seconds to act
flopemnice:, it's your turn. You have 5 seconds to act
flopemnice: raises $25.62 to $34.50

Right before he raised he said this:
flopemnice: hmmm
flopemnice: did you git a 4
flopemnice: or 2 pr

he says this after my river bet, then he proceeds to major raise me?=easy fold... right?

 Nawwwwww, fuck him, I call.. Personally, I see that chat as him not wanting you to call.. I think it's all about picking levels though. :P

Looking purely at the line, 55 is the only hand that really makes sense for him to have (Other than a bluff), but the problem is that it makes a lot of sense...

If he really sees me as a laggtard, then I call no prob. I may think for a second otherwise, but almost always call this. C/C on all streets, and bomb the river is a standard line with TP against a really Loose aggro player on a rather dry board.

QFT. The Hollywood talk and then raise is usually a monster. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see KK/K4 here.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

 I really think this chat is a bad sign.

"I really think this chat is a bad sign."

Me too. I was totally intent on calling and then i saw this chat... I was like who says "i hope you didn't hit a 4.. or 2 pair..." then raises? That made me instantly think i was beat...

If there was no chat, i instacall. With the chat im pretty baffled. Sure my image is laggy, but this guy is no maniac. Also, does the fact ive only put in like ~12 bucks into the pot and im facing a 26 dollar raise, combined with chat make this a tough call/probable fold? More opinions appreciated... thanks for those who have chimed in so far.
