Hey there, I'm just getting into poker again (thus also not having any history on the villains), and in my first session today i played this hand:

PokerStars - $0.02 NL FAST - Holdem - 9 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 100 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 2)
SB: 250.5 BB (VPIP: 20.00, PFR: 20.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 5)
BB: 99 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 3)
UTG: 170.5 BB
Hero (UTG+1): 119 BB
MP: 110.5 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 16)
MP+1: 158 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 3)
MP+2: 330.5 BB (VPIP: 66.67, PFR: 33.33, 3Bet Preflop: 50.00, Hands: 3)
CO: 52.5 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 2)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has T♦ T♣

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, fold, fold, CO calls 3 BB, BTN calls 3 BB, SB raises to 24 BB, fold, Hero raises to 119 BB and is all-in, fold, BTN calls 97 BB and is all-in, SB calls 95 BB

Flop: (342 BB, 3 players) 8♥ Q♥ T♠

Turn: (342 BB, 3 players) 4♣

River: (342 BB, 3 players) 3♥

SB shows A♥ A♠ (One Pair, Aces)

Hero shows T♦ T♣ (Three of a Kind, Tens)

BTN shows 7♣ 6♥ (High Card, Queen)

Hero wins 330 BB

In hindsight i probably shouldn't have shoved there, as he would have AA KK QQ too often, right? Or was this the right play? Also his 3bet size of 24 BB irritated me..

I do not think it will be profittable to push with TT here.
You can call, though.

I don’t really like to call pre-flop when I need to invest more than 20% of my stack to call for set value only. I would fold TT against a unknown that squeezed that big here. If we would play 250BB effective I would earlier call his 3bet in a spot like this pre-flop.

Cheers,

Yeah, I wouldn't do this either. Calling could be an option with reads as TT/JJ sometimes have more than just set value post-flop.
