 Villain is 35/5. Seen him stack off with TPNK.

Yes, I realise my turn raise should have started off at like 8-10c

iPoker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (5 handed) - iPoker Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

UTG ($1.96)
MP ($0.91)
Button ($3.41)
SB ($1.06)
Hero (BB) ($3.32)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7, 6
3 folds, SB calls $0.01, Hero checks

Flop: ($0.04) K, 6, 2 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($0.04) 7 (2 players)
SB bets $0.02, Hero raises to $0.06, SB raises to $0.10, Hero raises to $0.40, SB raises to $1.04 (All-In), Hero calls $0.64

River: ($2.12) 8 (2 players, 1 all-in)

Total pot: $2.12 | Rake: $0.10

Results in white below:
SB had 2, 2 (three of a kind, twos).
Hero mucked 7, 6 (two pair, sevens and sixes).
Outcome: SB won $2.02

 When he had TPNK how did he play it on the flop?
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

Yeah good point he donked into the flop, then 4bet/shoved all-in. And I know from experience the players at this level like to slowplay their strong hands, I just guessed my 2p was better than his range.

 Figure out a range of hands for what he would take this line with, then plug it into pokerstove and determine your equity. Then figure out if you have odds to call.

What range of hands do you think he takes this line with?

As to getting it all in with TPSK, There are plenty of times I'll get it all in and be considered good.

You haven't given us enough information

What were the 2 stack sizes involved? How big was the pot on the flop? Was his opponent mentally retarded?

Can't just call a player bad because he got it AI with a hand that conventional wisdom says is probably a bad choice. The reason is: Conventional wisdom only applies to 100bb stacks, with decent players who don't get out of line to often.
The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?
