A new dilemma for me coming right from limit; I guess you guys handle this situation all the time.
No read on Villain:

Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $.25 BB (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Hero ($52.35)
UTG ($28.40)
UTG+1 ($22.75)
UTG+2 ($46.80)
MP1 ($25)
MP2 ($49.15)
MP3 ($29.85)
CO ($6.65)
Button ($39.75)
SB ($1.10)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, K.
UTG+1 calls $0.25, UTG+2 calls $0.25, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.25, 4 folds, Hero raises to $1.6, 1 fold, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 calls $1.35, MP2 folds.

Flop: ($3.80) 8, A, 2 (2 players)
Hero bets $4.05, UTG+2 is all in for $45.20.

Don't usually see such an overbet on a regular basis. Obviously you think that this is: A) an idiot pushing a set or B) a ridiculously idiotic bluff. You could be ahead to AQ but i think you are losing to a badly played two pair or set...I don't see a call here its just not worth your stack.

That's a stupid looking bet. Without a read, can't see how you can call though.

The biggest difference between NL and Limit I've found is that the answer is almost always "it depends". Where as in limit there are lots of spots where there is a correct play.

I folded. But what an idiot, at the UB 0,25 tables very many players would have called him with TPTK even with 2x buyin stacks:

ThorKGB folds, showing Ac Kd. Villain is returned
$41.15 (uncalled).

Villain opts to show Tc 9c.
Villain Tc 9c 8c As 2h: ace high.
Hand #9173935-20812 Summary:
$.60 is raked from a pot of $12.15.
Villain wins $11.55.
