I haven't been at the table long. Table is average. Play it any different?

Were you planning to raise the turn? I would raise the flop.

Raise the flop & cap if possible.

If he still leads into you on the turn, that's when you can start fearing AA/TT (or JJ now) and call down. If MP2 raises him on the turn after you capped the flop, you can seriously consider folding.

You played this way too passively postflop.

Yes, was planning to raise the turn (until it got popped in front of me). I agree, should've raised the flop.

I would've raised the flop, bet the turn, and check/called the river. On the flop I would be pretty sure I have the best hand. UTG+1 likely has TPGK or an overpair (Of which AA is the only one that has you beat.) If he made trip T's he would've almost certainly gone for the check raise or waited for the turn. On the river, the other Ten falling would probably make me check if checked to me but I would end up paying him off because of the size of the pot. Let's see if I'm right or not.
