After I got called on my flop bet I figured it was likely my opponet had a T or an overpair. How should I have played this? After the flop bet he really doesen't have a big enough stack size to worry me. But I don't like getting money in when I'm behind. What would you do in this spot? How would you play it?

Maybe make a smaller turn bet that you can *maybe* get away from if he pushes? You played it ok I think.

I think any bet I could make on the turn will pot commit him and he will just raise me all in. Mabye I could check the turn. It may induce a bluff from the overpairs KK,QQ,JJ,99. Could I check the turn and call a reasonably sized bet on the river and mabye depending on the player fold to a push? Anoboy have any thoughts on this?

Your opponent doesn't have a big enough stack to let you get away from this if you're beaten. But you shouldn't be rushing to get the money in. I'd rather see if I can induce a bluff somewhere than to let him throw away something that's drawing dead.
