You're betting real small on the flop and turn. I prob bet a little more, but I don't mind the small bets on a board with this texture.

would bet more on flop and turn 2/3 to 3/4 of pot. I don't mind the river push because I see hands like 88,99 calling.

Yeah that sucked. However, it did help me out because it made me realize that my betting is too small and unaggressive.

The guy who had the Quad Tens said something similar to, "Your bet was only another 100 so I called." He had K /images/graemlins/club.gifT /images/graemlins/club.gif

After the 3rd T hit the board, I thought the probability of him having the 4th T was slim, but in this case he had it.

3x preflop there is standard.

You are being results oriented.

The PF raise was standard and I can't blame villain for calling it either assuming he could get away from a King-high rainbow. You have to bet more on the flop and turn. I don't mind the overbet either as a smaller PP might call thinking you're trying to buy it with a big Ace. I go broke with this hand regardless but I am unsure if that's a leak...

If you start making it more than 3x when you have aces, 3x other times, it's a tell. either pick 3x or 4x and stick with it, or vary it for no apparent reason.

Bet more on the turn to get someone with a 7 to commit himself to the pot right then rather than letting a scary overcard fall on the turn which will lose you action. I'd try and get him to commit closer to 1/4 - 1/3 his stack on the turn.

He probably would have folded KTs to a 4xBB preflop raise, but do you want him to do that? He is not going to always make quads.
