Makes sense... I was around 30/20 for a while but at these limits I've been having more success as a 25/17.

30/20 takes a lot of practice and is a lot more variant. Just remember that even at 25/17 the long term is truly a lot of hand.

okay, here's the river...

River T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="red">Hero bets</font>, bb folds, <font color="red">UTG raises</font>, Hero calls.

UTG flips over TT for the rivered 2 outer.

i wanted to know:
#1 if there were other ways i could play this hand
#2 if it is my fault that i got sucked out on or was there a way for me to avoid this.

I'll try not to be results oriented.
The hand would have plyed out differently if:

1) You 3bet preflop and kept on the gas.
2) You check/raised the turn instead of betting out.

Sure, in situation 2 he would have probably sucked out anyhow, but you would have been able to get 2 bets out of him when you were like a 85% favorite to win, which is like making 1.7BBs. You also would have been able to fold the river, with a good enough read on him.

Of course... But would you really want to fold someone drawing so thin against you?

You played it fine. He hit one of 4-5 outs (depending if he had the flush ten or not). This is great for you, there was a 90% chance you were going to beat him on the turn.
