Reads? Total nit or will he stack off with TP? Effective stacks here are really deep (~300bb) so stacking off even with an overpair is probably a bad idea. If we call his bet here we'll have committed roughly 1/3 of his stack. Tough spot. I think it's a push or fold completely depending on your read. If he's the rare micro stakes guy who would never commit himself to a pot without beating TPTK, we fold. If he's just some schmuck who could care less because it's only $6, we push.

What you really need is to get PokerTracker and PokerAce HUD. Then you can multi table and still have stats on people. I would never multi table without them, it's too hard to keep track of that many people at once.
I would probably push, if the guy has aces or a set so be it. At these levels you'll see stuff like AQ or worse call you.

I don't like that he check/raises the flop. He's dumb or strong.
With the pre-flop action I don't put him on 7/7, 9/9, Q/9, or Q/7. If you are behind, you're behind to Q/Q or A/A.
I think he's trying to overplay his A/Q with the check/raise. If he had A/A I think he'd have re-popped you pre-flop. Q/Q is possible, but with a Q on the board it's not nearly as likely as A/Q.
I say shove.
I had a similar situation last night, where the guy did the same check/raise move with top pair to the board and an Ace kicker. My hand was better, and he called-my shove (6-max $25NL, for a $55+ pot).
I checked and I do have a few hands against poker4fun007. He was pretty tight,14% VP$IP, but that's based so few hands (17) that it's almost meaningless.

Thanks for the input guys. I folded this hand primarily because of villian's chip stack. I feared a set, and wasn't willing to commit half of my stack with KK (PF sure, but not at this point). I figured if I called his $1.72 now I'd be faced with calling the rest of his stack on the turn. If he had a $2 stack I am sure I would have called.
Turns out this was one of my better folds. Any further thoughts?

yeah Vanq said it right
good fold this time but at this level you have to be willing to push this almost everytime

i mean shipping in on flop with an overpair at .01/.02 is always +EV, unless its multiway monotone connectors or something. at these stakes 'reads' and 'don't go broke with one pair' is way overrated.

I'll agree at 100bb but not 300. That's like going broke 3 times with 1 pair.
