re: villains turn raise
massive overbets sometimes get called,
because it looks like you want people to fold.
(im not sure this was a good spot though)

wow the flop is horrible. Nobody raised preflop so why did you think someone was going to bet that flop. Lead right out on the flop. I you can pretty much safely say that anyone that checks the turn, then raises all in on the turn in a tiny pot has the nuts so the call is relatively bad, but they probably have QT enough of the time plus your redraws hit enough of the time to make it ok. The real issue is that you let him suck out for free then paid him off.

In small stakes play a bet like this could be anything from a cold bluff through a semi-bluff (most likly in my experience) to top pair or whatever. With a stong hand like trips and not too many ways to be beaten I wouldn't think long about calling this.
It's unlikly villian has trip Ts or Qs as he would have rasied preflop.

I smell 98 here...ouch. Lead the flop, lead the turn, call his rr on the turn and pray the river pairs the board.

I think villain can have QT/AQ type hands here alot of the time although i certainly would be betting into a board like this on the flop- hoping to get someone playing back at me.

The huge over bet on the turn can mean anything but i would lean towards a reluctant call and hope to fill up on the river.

I'm going to side with most everyone here. I think QQ, 10-10 must raise preflop, so you can't really put anyone on those. This all in bet just reeks of 8-9. With no one raising preflop and no one betting that flop, I'm going to make the same call 90% of the time.

Bet the flop. The hand plays much easier.

As is, I don't think it's a HORRIBLE call. But it's almost a 1:1 call. The pot is small before villain pushes so you may just wanna give this one to him and punch yourself in the balls and realize you should bet the flop next time.
