    Hero: KK
    Position: BTN
    Stack: ~250

    Villain: ?
    Position: Middle Position (older gentleman, not a nit, but does push all in in odd situations)
    Stack: ~200

    Stakes: 1-2, ~4 ABC poker players, at least 2 aggressive players, and at least 2 at my level (above average player, more of math player)

    Villain in Middle Position raises to $10
    HJ calls
    I popped it to $30 from the button
    Villain calls
    HJ folds
    Pot: $73

    Flop: A 3 5 with two diamonds (I have no diamonds)

    Villain: Pushes all in $170
    Pot: $243, with rake be $238

    I have no information on this guy (older gentleman), I only seen him bet $30 in to $40 pot with a draw. In middle position and only calling a re-raise from the button, maybe he has

    -any Ace X (X <= 10), 2 diamonds, a pocket pair (JJs to KKs).
    -Unlikely he has pocket Aces, 3s, or 5s.
    -Unlikely he has any pocket pairs less than JJs to make this move
    -Unlikely he has 2,4
    -Unlikely he has 4, 6

    With such a fast all in, overbet, should I have called?

    One crucial piece of information is whether the ace on the board is the ace of diamonds. If it is, then he can’t both have you beat and have a flush draw. If the ace is not a diamond, then he can very easily have AXdd. So if Ad is not on the board, I would fold for sure because a big part of his range is a pair of aces and the nut flush draw. If Ad is on the board, then I might call if I thought this player was capable of over-shoving a flush draw. If I didn’t think him capable of that play, or at least thought that he’s unlikely to make that play, then I’d fold.
