Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (6 max, 5 handed) converter

Button ($105.50)
SB ($34.50)
Hero ($173.15)
UTG ($30)
MP ($217.60) V: 47 - R: 6 - H: 93 -CR: 4 - WtSD: 24 - W$SD: 45

Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG raises to $4, MP calls $4, Button folds, SB folds, Hero raises to $10, UTG raises to $30 (All-In) Big trouble. AA, KK maybe AK but most likely a PP bigger than TT , MP calls $26,this is interesting Hero raises to $173.15 (All-In),This is the decision I'm questioning MP folds.

Flop: ($234.15) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players, 2 all-in) 

Turn: ($234.15) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players, 2 all-in) 

River: ($234.15) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players, 2 all-in) 

Final Pot: $234.15
Main Pot: $91, between Hero and UTG. > Pot won by Hero ($91).
Pot 2: $143.15, overbet by Hero.

Hero shows Ts Tc (one pair, tens).
UTG shows Kc Js (high card, ace).
Outcome: Hero wins $234.15.

At the time I thought I played OK, but I'm having a hard time putting a value on playing the sidepot with the loose med ag player that called the min raise and then a raise from the blinds and an allin. I put him on a smaller pair than TT or two not so hot over cards. He might be playing cute, those with a high CR% sometimes do, and I might not have the best hand vs MP. I do not think I have the best hand with the all-in.

I like it, and I'm guessing MP had a weak A and finally thought better of it when you went all in.

I fold when it comes back to me. I very much doubt 88 99 call that bet. All the coinflips will call. So you just wasted the main that goes into the main pot.
