This looks fine to me given positions. I would play it the same way.

I can't think of anything you can do here on any street to get away here.

Pre: Standard obv, I like your sizing.

Flop: See bet is mandatory, when we get raised here we are a little sad but I think folding is definitely too weak and flat calling seems bad to me so just sticking in the money here seems fine.

I'm inclined to agree that it's a fairly standard spot for going broke on the flop given the positions and stack to pot ratio. Unfortunately, you can't win them all in poker.

Similar to the KK hand you posted, if you were deeper I think you could get away from this hand, but at this stack depth I think overpairs just get the money in. Take a note of his raise size for next time though, it's really huge and indicates that he's never folding to a shove. That doesn't necessarily mean he has the nuts, he could just be committing himself with a draw but if it's not a size he always takes you might be able to get away from spots like this in the future.

This looks really grim to me. It's been a couple of years since I last played 50NL, and I would find a fold here at smaller stakes against this raise size.

Are these games playing aggressive enough where we really have to go with it here? There's a few two pair combos, sets and a made straight to go with flush draws that are flipping and some that have more equity. I'm not expecting to see TT played this way, so are we only worried about being exploitable?

We're getting creamed vs his value range, so he'd have to have a ton of bluffs otf to make this work. While we can discount a part of this range, there's always the chance he shows up with AA/KK as well.
