TT Postflop hand

This is from a multi, but I thought I'd post it here because MTT is swarmed with WSOP stuff, and I like the advice here. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Blinds 100/200.
Villain T2000
Me T5500

Villain open limps in the CO. I raise to 800 on the button with TT. Blinds fold and villain calls.

Flop: J 7 2 rainbow.

Villain pushes his last 1200, I call. Pretty easy call? I figured he has a smaller pair or 2 overcards enough times to justify the call given the pot odds.

Edit: Full Tilt $11 tourney. Players are generally tight, and most are decent. Villain hadn't done anything crazy yet.

You've got to be wondering why the heck this guy who you haven't seen do anything fishy is limping from the CO when he has a 10xbb stack and could probably pick up the blinds by just open pushing. This looks alot like someone getting creative with Aces/Kings or someone putting you on a steal and trying to resteal on the flop.

So, I think you've got to call getting 2.5:1 on the call.

Weird hand. Villain limped with JTs. These players here are a different animal from party, although calling still seems correct here.

Good call. Too bad villain sucks and got lucky.
