    Seat 9: nokiaone85 (small blind) folded before Flop

    In my own assessment, I don't know how I could have lost less on this hand without playing "too tight". I played the turn and river in an effort for pot control because I was weary of AA. What range can I put him on with his overcall? I was ranging him JJ+, AK, AQs?....nothing worse. Is this the right range to be putting him on? I don't know much about him other than he had a tight solid table image so far.

    I'm open to all suggestions on how to play this differently/better if at all possible.
