q high on dry board, am i too weak?

Button is a semi-solid reg. he plays about  64% of hands from the button with 46% pfr.  and flop cbet 82%.

I tend to have problems in this spots. folding flop is weak but i often got floated by him when i tried to c/r small to fight for the pot. what do you do here?


10/20 No Limit Holdem 2 Players SB reg 480 BB Hero 520 Effective Stacks: 24bb Blinds 10/20 Pre-Flop (30, 2 players) Hero is BB with d8 dQ reg raises to 40, Hero calls 20 Flop (80, 2 players) c3 h3 s2 Hero checks, reg bets 28, Hero calls 28 Turn (136, 2 players) d3 Hero checks, reg bets 80, Hero folds Final Pot: 136 reg wins 216 ( won +68 ) Hero lost -68

Could you tell me how many

Could you tell me how many hands you flat called, 3-bet and folded versus his min-raise?

Hi, I'd not be too hard on

Hi,
I'd not be too hard on yourself here; your opponent isn't doing much else when the situation is reversed. In general this is not an ideal spot to pick a fight; let's not forget he probably has A, K or a pair well over 50% of the time. You can let this go on the flop since he is not planning to slow down on the turn. The turn would, if you chose to, be the place to fight for this particular pot but unfortunately the three of diamonds offers you no ammunition. But if I'm in a game where I might scrap for the pot on the turn, given this board and your cards, then I'd want to hold the possibility of picking up a flush draw.  I'd save your chips here and choose a different spot to use them to be tough on your opponent.

Check-fold

Might sound weak, but I'd just check fold here.
Even if villain is opening 100% and cbetting his entire range here, we're behind more often than not vs his range with Qd8d.
Propokertools PQL: http://www.propokertools.com/pql
select count(equity(hero, flop) < 0.50) as hero_behind
from game="holdem", hero="Qd8d", villain="100%", board="3c 3h 2s"
We're behind 57.54% of the time.
If he's opening less than 100%, his range is going to have more Ax and Kx against which you are donating value to by continuing.
 
If villain was known to be a weak reg who opens wide, cbets wide then gives up to any aggression you could consider raising the flop.
But you really don't represent anything (this flop won't be hitting much of your perceived OOP flatting range) and if villain has half a brain he will be reraising or floating you wide enough that a c/r probably won't be a profitable contest.
And there really aren't many turn or river cards which you can continue on, so you're pretty limited in your future street strategic options out of positon.

fold on flop, how many Hands

fold on flop, how many Hands you have on villain? how many hands you have on this villain to have him raise 46% of his button?
