Q)Should've I BET on the turn ? He made two cold calls to reasonable bets, worried he had a better pair or another T,. Though a bet on the turn might have got him to fold.. it didn't and he ended up getting the pot w/the full house.
I still think I played correctly and just got unlucky.

Any comments appreciated.

His check on the turn seems weak. He called a raise preflop, so Id probably tend to think he didnt hold an overpair seeing as he may have wanted to reraise preflop.

I probably would have fired at the turn.

If you're willing to assign a low enough probability them havng a ten or a higher pocket pair, just put them all-in on the flop. There are too many cards (say, aces, kings, queens, jacks, possibly clubs) that will make your turn decision much more difficult.

One of the best things about a push is that it may look like you're making a move with AK or AQ, which will get you action from 88-66 (even though I find someone 3-betting with those kind of unlikely).
