Not a ton of info to go off of here. When that is the case- I try to answer the question of "why". A flat of your c-bet......why? Perhaps a draw? With K10? While it certainly gives an explanation to his actions- I have a tough time believing that he flopped OE and hit the turn. And for him to bet that large on turn goes against K10 being the case. So I move to the next possibility- he had some sort of AQ/AJ and once he hits his kicker he is forced to bet out any FD/SD he may be up against.

Sucks to fold- but it might be the most prudent action.

I m on the fence about even c betting these boards with AKo vs a MP raise. If you have little info on him he has little on you and he should assume your 3 betting range is pretty snug so he should not be calling it all that lite. So for his range I d say like TT-JJ or QQ, sometimes AKo, KQs,QJs,AJs,AQ. Something along these lines. This kind of range just is almost never folding and all your outs except the T (and its not exactly a deceptive str8) are pretty dirty.

c/f does seem like a good and disciplined decision.
