Pre-flop: I fold this one. Anything below pocket Kings, and I need something else (like a wrap - JJT9 or JJKQ, for example) before I'll play it, especially against a raise when you're OOP.
Flop: A good flop for you. You've got the best hand, so now's the time to see if you can get him to fold his overpair. I think the re-raise here is fine, as it basically tells him you've got a set. The fact that he called the re-raise, instead of folding, tells me that he almost certainly has a draw to go along with his overpair.
Turn: A bad turn. He pushes, knowing that you have a set, so unless you know him to bluff scare cards, I think you have to assume he hit his draw and lay it down here.
