Villain was very tight passive, like 13/0/0.
How is preflop and the flop?
I was thinking about folding the turn, because he was so tight passive, but Rodolphe thought I was joking and I am a donkey. :P
How is this?
Would you fold the turn if he bet bigger? What size?

Listen to Rodolphe. As played is fine. AS for the stats, are they filtered for 3handed?

What is he betted more, like 700 or 1000?
The guy had not bet a hand so far, so we have to give him a little credit right?

Regardless of the bet I shove over on the turn. I'm more likely to give this guy credit for sensing weakness in your flop check than having a hand that beats us.

I think I can't fold no matter how much he bets :S
I will go broke everytime

Betting the flop is not good because the only turn card we don't want to see is an ace.

but if you bet out on the flop with 400 and he smooth calls, you can get the free card if he checks turn since you say hes tight

if he shoves you on flop i'd probably call

shove turn as well

I like the raise with this kind of hand 3handed, but dont understand why you dont make a move on the flop? Your in a position where you can push because you have more chips than him + you got the position on him. And as stussyelse also said, you most of the time buy a freecard on the turn if it doesnt complete your straight.

As tight passive player, wouldnt he fold a lot on the flop if he didnt have the queen?

If he didn't have a queen, the only card we're afraid of is an ace. Probably a ten too.
That's why, taking the free card on the flop is good IMO.
