Default 50/100 Three-handed

3 handed 50/100. Hero is BB with 10h8h.

Button folds, hyper-aggressive SB raises. He has raised every time the button folds and I am the BB. I call.

Flop: K96 rainbow. He bets, I call.
Turn: K. He bets, I call.
River; J. He bets, I call.

I don't normally like being so passive in a short-handed game, and I consequently feel uncomfortable with this hand. Comments on all streets appreciated.

Um....your sure you typed that out right? Calling with T high seems a wee bit strange.

I typed it right, as I said, I feel I played this poorly. Constructive comments appreciated.

WTF?

Raise the river and get him to fold his Q high.

save those river calls for hands that are like Q high at least. I don't hate it, but think your call isn't +ev

I think calling with ten-high here can be justified if certain conditions are met.

I agree its not really a +EV play. It was kind of a spur of the moment decision. I agree that folding or raising the river are both better plays 99% of the time. Which do you prefer here?
