Do you use any form of contraception when this happened?
If he thought you were on the pill and you wasn't but had sex anyway then yes you did trick him and I could see him being annoyed.
Either way this man now has a child growing inside you and it would be cruel not to tell him. If he wants nothing to do with it then you haven't lost anything because by not telling him he wont have anything to do with it neither.
If he does want something to do with the child then thats excellent news as the child will have a father.
You can not deprive this man of the news that he is going to be a father regardless of the fact as to wether or not he thinks you tricked him.

Just tell him the news, all men who sleep with a woman has to calculate with this possibility.

Are you one of these crazy women who try and inseminate themselves with their partner's ejaculate when their partner doesn't come inside them?
If you answered no to both of these then definitely tell him because your conscience is clear and it doesn't matter what he thinks.
If you did either of these things then I think you should leave him out of the whole situation.

Two choices
1 - Say nothing, never reveal who the father is, never tell him or your child. Support the child yourself.
2 - Come clean and just say that you're pregnant. He will think what he wants to. But whether he likes it not, he's going to be a Dad. Remember, he chose to have one last fling as well. So he's just as responsible.
I think you should go with option 2. At least that way, you'll know whether he's going to be there or not. You've just got to come out with it really. Hopefully, he'll get over it and be a good father. If not, there's always option 1 again.
