Much better than getting into a huge preflop raising war with smallish pairs.

10s is not a "smallish" pair

Hero re-raises (to 9 or 10K maybe?). Good spot for a squeeze, as MP1 could be raising with only top 40% of hands, and MP2 knows that and called with a marginal hand; however, I would fold most of the time to a re-raise all-in. results?

i think you are getting mixed up between protecting and or getting value from your better/premium cards and using the squeeze play.

like i said before the squeeze play is exactly that a play you put on someone with rags when a loose player is opening a ton of pots and another loose player calls his open and you are in the say BB and want to squeeze them out of the hand. if they call you are playing monsters and then if you miss you have a hand you can easily get away from it. this hand clearly doesn't fit that bill. you are not raising for those reasons.

This is the ideal spot to try a squeeze play.

Really? I would prefer the squeeze play if I was holding a hand of less value than TT here. With TT, this seems an ideal situation to try and win a huge pot by normally just calling.
