Loose/agressive player: $90
Me: $400
LAP limps UTG. insane amount of other limpers. I'm on the button with

I raise to $12. everyone folds but the UTG LAP calls. I really respect his play. He's winning lots of pot with good, solid, and agressive play.
FLOP pot: $31

LAP checks to me. My tens are looking great with this flop. All under cards to my pocket 10s. I put the slider bar to a pot bet of $30 like usual....then I stop and think.
This LAP is a very good player. If he check-raises me all-in here, it would be another $50 for me to call. I would be completely unsure whether to call or fold. He could have something like

I also don't like the fact that if he calls here and paint hits on the turn, my cards become even less worthwhile. He may even lead out all-in when an over hits. I've seen him make those kinds of plays.
I put him all-in for the $80 he has left and put him to the test. I decide if he has something like the A9 he may call...thinking it's a bluff. If he has JJ...he can't be sure whether I have AA-QQ or not and might even fold.
Basically, I did not want to let myself get outplayed by this talented poker player. Any thoughts guys? I've never really make a huge overbets like that...but I still feel it was the best solution.
He folded and mucked by the way. He let his timer run down to 15 seconds. I did not ask him about his holdings.
