How could I have played this better?

Bet the pot on the flop. If he raises this bet, you re-raise all-in. If he just calls this bet, you lead all-in on the turn. This strategy kills his odds for any flush draw.

On the flop and turn, you're likely ahead (assuming we don't know the actual results), and you want to get your money in while you're ahead. If he has a ten with higher kicker, so be it. If he doesn't, you want to take this down or force him into a bad call.
