I would never 3-bet TT from the cutoff unless I knew the original raiser was a complete flake.

I wouldn't 3-bet the flop either. I think right now you're behind to a bigger pair.

You're probably beaten on the river, but given the size of the pot, calling the raise with the third nuts is automatic.

In short, you were way too aggressive early with TT.

BTF 3 bet ok. He could have AK, AQ or even less. Try to isolate him.

Flop raise good. I'd only call the 3 bet though.

I'd call it down but late bet from Button is scary.

I didn't 3-bet the flop.

What's so bad about 3-betting pre-flop from late position?

3 bet here almost every time - unless you know the raiser is a complete rock. See this thread:
