    I put him on overs, but looking @ poker tracker I had no hand history whatsoever so it was a "gut" feel, and just as likely me looking for an excuse to play.
    He played it like an overpair though.

    I won the hand and felt great, but I can't help thinking that perhaps the call of the allin was the wrong move. . . I had the overpair to the board, and I've seen the allin w/AK so many times when they miss the flop it's ridiculous.

    Any thoughts?

    himself fucker.
    If he makes a strong continuation bet, what do you do? You have to give him credit for the overpair and fold. Just limp with TT in mp behind other limpers, making a super raise is only going to dig you deep into a pot with a hand that scares easily. Limp to set, call AK prf raise, check-raise AK's contiuation bet on the flop and win the pot.
