I like to raise here with 10s.

Personally, I agree with the other opinions, but I'm game. Where is the value in raising with the Tens here?

this is deep in the tournament and obviously picking up pots before the flop is crucial. You're not trying to flop a set here, or just call and hope for a ragged board, you're trying to accumulate. This is a raise or fold situation imho. If you pop it up you have at least some info on whoever is calling you. You've also taken the betting lead and have position, so a bet on flop will most likely take it down if any callers don't hit the flop hard.
