i think i make a smaller re-re-raise -- maybe something like 400 -- but thats just nitpicking. no, you didnt overplay it.

the chances that he had the straight were fairly low. even just using that information, it makes it right to push. apart from that, you had outs against a straight, which made it even more right to push.

so, no.

His re-re-re-raise tells me you're beaten at this point. He's got a made hand...or he's the hopingest player ever.

660 more into 1900...8 outs to fill up or make quads on the turn...11 on the river...it sounds like you're getting the odds to call (unless your put him on a set of 9s).

Upon reflection...re-re-raising to 400-425 (t420 in so far) should let you know if you're beaten or not.

BB has a draw and looks like he's donkish enough to overcall a reraise if SB calls a 4 bet. At Party, you'd just push now, but at Stars, you have too many chips.

Once in a while, I just call here and get the rest in on a safe turn, but you have to give up the hand on about 1/3 of the deck, which sucks.

Hmm...tough hand. If the BB comes along no matter what you do and the only way SB pushes is when he has you beat (but you give yourself pot odds to call him with a 4 bet), I think you have to just call.
