personally i would just flat call and play after flop i dont think raiser has pocket pair bigger than TT i put him on overs in this spot but i want to see flop before i commit anymore chips he may pull a stop and go here im 95% sure you are ahead pre flop here so i like a flat call then
play after flop if it looks like its good for your hand.

Villain can't stop n go, since he has position. Just push. TT is not good for stop n go and I don't want to fold if overcards flop.

Just jam it in there.

His range is wide enough for TT to be a solid favorite, and unless he's very aggressive it will be hard to get paid off post-flop if you have the best hand (and you can easily get bluffed out when the board is scary). You often have fold equity against hands like AJ and KQ (which you DONT want to take a flop with), and you don't want AK to only get his money in if he outflops you. JJ+ are just going to get your money here: stacks are too shallow.

I'd also push 99/88 here. I'd probably stop-and-go anything 77 or lower.

With this bet and his chip stack, villian's most likely willing to felt this. Beat him to it...you're probably ahead of his range here.

Yeah it's time to shove to isolate him. I can't imagine him making that big a raise with a big pair when he has a little over 10 BBs. Usually AA/KK minraises or raises 2.5x BB here, so I like TT in this situation.

What's wrong with just folding?
1. You are in good shape money-wise
2. You are out of position
3. You have no read on him/her

The fact that he raised at all rather than pushing makea QQ-AA more likely. This depends someaht on villain's style.

I would still push.
