Villain is a standard rec-fish. Knows the game well, plays the occasional 5/10. Plays a lot of hands, often shows up with Q6s, 95s, J7o, etc. Loose-passive most of the time and when he tilts, he tends to spew HARD. Hopeless over-bluffs for 3 streets, overcalls, everything.
But Villain is not tilting at this point. He is comfortably sitting on a huge stack. Hero has about $1300 and Villain covers.
EP raises to $20 or $25
Villain reraises to $65.
Hero cold-calls in position with 10-10, EP folds.
Flop: Q-8-x rainbow. Check, check.
Turn: 10 Villain leads out $60. Hero raises to $180. After a few seconds, Villain announced All-in.
How many times I've paid off top set with a middle Set hand putting in my last calling chips crying.. maybe I should reconsider folding sets sometimes?
Back in 2007 if you hit top pair with AK, it's the nuts, regardless of action. If you have QQ+/AK pre, it's the nuts. If you have 2 pairs+ post flop, it's the nuts. The reason is there were many worst hands that would continue regardless of how much you bet or raised.
People that play that way are the biggest losers in the game today. Maybe pot-control all but the absolute nuts and fold to big 2.5 BI re-shoves?

Well you know the guy - what range are you giving him? Assuming no flush draw hit the turn (and if you don't recall it must not have been a big consideration at the time) it would seem to be mostly AA, KK (but no cbet?) or QQ. if you think there's a reasonable chance he'd be slamming it in over your turn raise with an overpair, in his current mood, it's a call. But my guess is you are looking at set under set.
