The guy runs at something like 10/8/4, overbetting every single pot he's in. What's the standrd line here?

How many hands is the sample over? Judging by his stats hes not in very many pots, so hes prob overbetting with the goods. If the sample was significant I'd just call the turn. And on the river I'd have to see his bet sizing on whether or not to call. You're only beating 78, this guys not pushing a draw that hard. If the sample size isnt significant, I'd play it like you did.

Tricky spot. those stats are really sample size dependent. If its over a large sample this guy is an ubernit and your looking at a set or top 2.

I think raising pre makes this hand much easier to play, esp if villain and/or table is tight. As played I'd raise flop. Tough spot on the turn... I think my money goes in as well, maybe incorrectly.

Raise preflop. Raise the flop, fold to a 3-bet. As played call the turn.

A 10/8 (with a large enough sample) pretty much only plays PP and AK. The fact that he didn't raise preflop screams set to me. I suppose AK is possible but I'm still just calling down. Unless he's the type that plays so few hands that he would over play his medium PP even with the Ace out there.
