I wish I had read this before my last session. I had a hand that I THINK perfectly illustrates this point. Villain is 81/16/50/.6

River: ($10.35) 7 (2 players)

Final Pot: $21.35
BB shows T 8 (a straight, Seven to Jack)
Hero shows K J (three of a kind, Jacks)
BB wins $20.35
(Rake: $1.00)
Even getting close to 3:1 on the river I think this is close to a fold against someone so passive. A bad fish would of raised a J before river.
