Has he been limping aces before? If you can't rule them out I think you have to fold.

Is this a HU tourney or a final table or what? Because I'm more tempted to call at a final table, more chance of spastic 'I have to win this pot at any cost' kinda plays. His bet size doesn't look like a bluff though.

I don't know if he has been limping aces, but he usually open completes.

check calling the turn is a big mistake.. theres nothing you're beating at this point and better yet no action you want to take on the river.. bet/fold turn and check/fold river

I actually folded the river. The hand kind of got to me, because it was key in the result. I thought maybe my tens were good, but when the showed the replay, I found out villain limp/called 65o and flopped trips.

Kind of a difficult situation on the turn, but I don't see how there is nothing you are beating and it is an easy fold. Seems like villain could call the flop with a lower pp or a pair on the board and maybe not that.
