you did fine. try limping TT from EP cos you'll still want to play it for set value if someone wakes up with AA/KK/QQ behind you. you got most of the money in with an overpair on a board where you're likely ahead but given the turn/river, i doubt whether you won this hand.

He was MP1...I think a raise with TT from MP1 is appropriate. I take the same line as he did throughout the hand as well.

[TheWorstPlayer]

I agree. I wouldn't open limp TT from MP1. I would play this hand exactly the same way.

[MathProf]

Thanks for the reassurance. You guessed it - Villian had 89 off and rivered the straight.

Oh well - buddy list time - I'll get it back in the long run with calls like that.

[TheWorstPlayer]

Villains mistake was actually not pushing on the flop. Why just call and leave himself with $8? He's got a pair and a straight draw and could easily put you on overs. He should push the flop.

I very much doubt it, although I really don't know anything about him. I just recognized the name.
