Soon after I folded this I started kicking myself thinking that I should have pushed two pair. But he was aggressive enough with the betting that I doubted my hand. Good fold or no?

I would have definately called, his all-in was only around 1/2 the pot. He probably had a jack and figured he'd try to push you off.

Yeah. I am not in the habit of putting people on hands. That is something I need to learn. I have been going mosty by aggression and betting patterns to learn strength. Thanks for the replys.
Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

definitely should have called. At that point, the all in is no longer an overbet, but more of a "I've got top pair." or "I've got an overpair" type of bet.

No way you should fold that.

What hands that beat you would justify a straight up all in here?

By his play, I'm thinking overpair, note the 6xBB raise preflop (would he do this with QT, T8 or 88?!).
