Any getting away from this hand?

Live game, $20 NL , .25/50 blinds, 9-handed
Hero ($20ish)
Villain ($20ish)

Hero is in SB with A/images/graemlins/heart.gifT/images/graemlins/spade.gif

5 limpers, hero completes

Flop ($3 or so): T/images/graemlins/diamond.gifT/images/graemlins/heart.gif6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif

Hero bets $3
2 callers

Turn ($12): Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif
Hero bets $10
MP2 goes all in

MP2 has played with me plenty, and knows I'm tight. At this point I put him on 66.

However, it's only another $4 or so to me to call, with the pot at about $40ish.

I -have- to call here right? Even if I'm about 90% sure he's got the boat?

Results:

MP2 shows 66 and wins hand (river even gave him quads)

Anything I could have done different?

if u know for certain that he has a FH 100% of the time u can fold. u r getting 10 to 1 to call and u do have 4 outs against 66. i dont fold here but then again i dont hate money. i think u will see weaker 10s and other hands here enough to make this a 100% call.

ps: there is an official no content thread to post hands like this in.

Your not thinking about folding, are you?

No,

It was an instant-call. It just sucked because I pretty much knew I was beat and would be drawing for a Ten or Ace at that point.

Should I have only bet 1/2 pot instead of the full 10?

This is just horrible. Getting 10:1 with 7 outs is a simple call.

Oh no, it was an instant call.

I'm more interested in if my turn bet of $10 was good enough.

No, it doesn't make a difference what your turn bet is. If you bet $5, are you folding to his push? No.
