2/5 Live NL I love playing big pots with 1 pair

i like how you played it. it's hard to see him pushing a straight like that when he puts you on an overpair.

He would push with the straight if he thought the over-pair was QQ that made a set on the river. Like others have said, this is very read-dependent, but I think he will show you a straight a large enough percentage of the time that this is generally not a good call. Hope it worked out.
