The problem is you allowed him to put 1/2 his stack in, so when u push after that it's kinda odd since you expect to be called. Do you have the best hand? you possibly do, otherwise you have 6 outs (overs)
I don't hate your play actually (the idea behind it), but it's not ideal in this situationbc of how large of a bet he made and its obvious that he's committed
On a side note Brian you have to play a bit of level 2 poker, you cant jus look at your own cards otherwise aware opponents will steal a large percent of pots from you simply by playing back. In addition you say you WOULDN'T play an overpair like that -- that is the beauty of playing it that way then isn't it? Switching up your game is very important.
