No reads. Figured if I didnt raise the flop, I wouldnt know what to do later anyway, flop isnt that coordinated and I might get a good idea of where I am and kill off the callers (which I did).

I think I like the flop raise for value. Turn is 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB bets, hero...?

Hero calls with a 5-outer getting 10-1 odds and fold river UI.

Why not cap the flop here? TPGK on a pretty uncoordinated board is pretty nice.

With one limper and a poster, I raise PF.

Because when the SB three bets you out of position, your pair of tens is no good. If you have some read that he's a maniac, then this is an acceptable line.
