Default Re: 9-10s overplayed or about right?

Yeah, I definitely don't like cold calling for the 2 bets preflop.

I think the other key point is smooth calling the flop (rather than raising). Raising doesn't do much here. Yes, the pot is large, so folding people out might make help you win if you hit a T or 9, but I think it's a good bet that those are useless anyway. You're almost assuredly up against at least one, if not two, overpockets.

There's no way you're winning the pot here, and you're overcards are probably useless. Though the smooth call likely wouldn't have done much to keep others in anyway, as MP3 would have raised.

This mostly just seems like a hand you shouldn't have been involved in to begin with. You're stuck between jammers on a draw.
