No to all your questions. You played this hand fine. I'm sorry you lost.

never folding overpairs in 3bet pots, with very few exceptions.

Villain's hand does look like TT or JJ but a station's range is much wider so pretty happy to get it in here.

Unhappy

a) no
b) no
c) no

Assuming he is not a complete donkey we have to question what we are beating here though on the trun. We are beating AJ+ and pockets smaller than TT (not including 33-44 which I never expect to see). I think the call of the 3-bet should lean us toward him having a hand even though he may have considered you were restealing. I think the turn bet by him means we are in a WA/WB situation but with $55 odd dollars in the pot already Im calling here every time.

I think the possible hands i would expect to see from the villain here are either JT, AJ, or TT+ (not QQ of course) of which we only beat AJ. If this is what we really think his turn range his here are we not meant to fold? (serious question as I would still have called but should we?)

Cheers

I don't think you can do anything but get it in here.

AK is in his range a lot and shoving after he picked up the SD seems fairly standard. AJ, A10 are also possible especially if he's a station.

If he turned a set on you thats a cooler. Flopping a set is unlucky and theres nothing you can do really with your overpair in a three bet pot.

So yeah, I don't mind your play at all.
