Default $8 Pokerstars, TT overpair preflop raiser overbets all in

have seen him making some huge overbets but never got called so I dont have any read. After the flop came immediately pushed with no hesitation:

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t100/t200
(Ante: t25)
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t4340
UTG+1: t11653
MP1: t3271
MP2: t8565
Hero: t10465
CO: t5151
Button: t5885
SB: t15372
BB: t7709

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP3 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 raises to t1000</font>, Hero calls t1000 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1525)</font>, 3 folds, BB calls t800 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t2525)</font>.

Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t3325, 3 players)
BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 is all-in t7540</font>, Hero folds, BB folds.
Uncalled bets: t7540 returned to MP2.

Results:
Final pot: t3325

I call here, 4 hands beat you I think and if hes been making lots of big overbets, Id say theres a better chance he doesnt have a pair.

If he does this as a matter of course call, if he doesn't, fold preflop

LOL...... "as a matter of course" means routinely

Many players love to shove hands like 77 or AK or any other random heand you're ahead of at this level. They think they are "representing" something amazing, when in reality, theyll try and trap a HUGE portion of the time. Occasionally youll run into someone overbetting a strong hand, but most of the time, calling is fine.
