I got called a fish last night...

...perhaps correctly.

I was dealt with TT in mid-position and raised. Everyone folded but a chap who was in late position who called. The flop brought x A x. I checked and the other guy bet the pot. The other guy had been raising and stealing quite often so this made me think that he did not necesserily have an Ace. I called.

The turn brought a 10, completing my set. I checked to induce action and he stuck me all-in. I called and won the pot. I then received a whole host of abuse (which I ignored).

What should I have done? Should I have folded my hand because of the overacard or was I correct to assume he may have been stealing and did not have the Ace? Perhaps I should have bet a small amount at the flop to test the waters?

I think I need to read up on overcard play, as if he did have an Ace I was a massive outsider, drawing to only 2 outs.
