Quick hand that made me want to vomit recently. 5-10 no limit game at Turning Stone Casino, Ive got 1300 in front of me. Loose failry agressive player who horribly over values his hands raises to 40 from the cutoff, all fold to me in the BB with pocket 10s. I figure there is little chance he has a bigger pair, he would raise with many differnet hands from this spot. I raise it to 130 total, and he calls. Flop comes 993. After the called the 100 dollar raise preflop, I was a little worried he might have something like Jacks or Queens. I decided to make a pretty good sized bet a on the flop, and if I got called I would slow may down and hope to get it checked down on the turn and river. I bet 200 on the flop and he calls. I'm sure Im beat at this point, and have no intention of putting another dollar in the pot. Turn comes a 10, giving me 10s full of nines. I go all in for my remaining money, (about 1000) and he calls and turns over pocket nines.
Obvioulsy Im going to lose all my money once the turn card hits, but im interested to hear how others would have played the hand up to this point. Anyone think I bet too much on the flop? I cant check because I dont want to give him a chance to hit an overcard. Almost remember this is a very loose weak player.
