I don't think a hand that wants a call is pushing here

[/ QUOTE ] I would agree if the stack sizes were about equal to the pot. Here the stack sizes are 10X the pot, and the overbet is crazy. In my experience, that means that the villian thinks his/her hand is good, but is worried that the turn or river might mess things up. So a pair of tens or a pair of jacks seems like the hand to me. She doesn't want to see an overcard or the 3rd flush card on the river or turn, so she pushes.

JC, I like your reasoning, but you don't think a big draw makes this push? Maybe two big overcards and flush draw , or flush draw with str8 draw?

Someone mentioned possibility of 2 big overs such as AK, but against a competent opponent I don't think you'll ever see this w/o a big draw/overpair. I wouldn't think a set either.
