I raised him another 5 to 10$ and he moved all in for 40$
I had 30$ left in my stack

Read: Tight solid player who had been folding to reraises on flop at least three time earlier. Playing safe, almost a rock.
Analysis: He could be holding TT, putting me on AK and protecting his top pair. He could also just as well be holding 55, 88 or 99 and given his style this is what I put him on here. 67 for a straight is possible, but he wasn't the type to call a preflop raise with it. Same goes for 98 two pair. I have top pair and I had to think about the TT possibility for a while but I decided that he had hit a set and:

I folded and he mucked his hand.

Any comments to my play here
would A9 make that play? good fold. i think you played it perfectly. raise the flop for information, i sense youre beat. i put him on the set or QQ from your read. looks like he waited for the flop to make his move anyway. he either hit his set or always had you beat with QQ and didnt want to commit himself with a chance of overcards on the flop. thats based on your analysis of him as a rock though.
