looks completely standard to me. His river riase is confusing. either he was overplaying a pair of nines or A9, or he missed out on some bets with TT

Looks fine, I'm guessing you were up against a smaller 2 pair.

Villain had TT. His play looked a little uncoordinated to me. I thought maybe he feared a AA or KK out of me for a second on turn, and then woke up on the river. Maybe he was confident he had me and thought he could get more by c/r river, who knows. I was thinking he had a hand like AT, until the river raise... then I was confused for a second, till I saw TT.

He may have missed a bet or 2, but not a whole lot b/c I think I would have toned it down slightly had he amped it up a bit.

I guess the purpose of this one was to get a feel if I overplayed my hand. If so, I am thinking not by much. I think I will play it the same next time.
