Default Re: Pocket Tens are killing me.

Bleh, that wasn't very constructive of me.

In hand 2, I proceed with extreme caution. A small bet might well take me to the river cheaply and also find out what kings and real sized pairs are out there.
Also, why did you raise pre-flop, you have an ideal opportunity here to try and flop a ten and double through, or get out cheaply.

You seem to over-rate this very mediocre hand.

2nd Edit: to try and limit the field.

Your raise isn't big enough as you haven't factored in the size of the pot.
I could understand, though dislike, if you pushed here and tried to get a coin flip (Which I still don't like, what do you think the early position guys have?) but all you have done by making a small raise (in relation to pot size) is make your implied odds go down.
