I feel that I do not have a clear answer as to what I should have done.
Plus, there is no clear understanding of how to correctly analyze this distribution, from which point of view to approach it. I would appreciate your analysis or advice.

5.5 tournament on 888 poker, middle stage.

Player statistics - VPIP 40 / PFR 14 (52 hands)
Before that, he was pen push with an AK/KK 40-50bb

Thank you in advance

pre is fine, i don't do those pathetically small raises but i get why people do, once you flop TPTK with spr of ~4 it's hard not to get it in. sorry he flopped a set.

thank you for your reply!
I'm just worried that this is a partially obvious situation where I will see two pairs/sets/, but I thought that there might be enough draws, 10x or 7x that want to knock out my over cards

I would also appreciate it if you could explain the slang you used here, as I am only guessing from the context - “spr of -4”
Thanks
