I've been playing squeeky tight all night, not hard considering my 'best' hand for +12 orbits has been 33 UTG+1.
So, I finally get a good hand, my very own pair of Atlas Boosters.

WTF was I doing calling a raise like that? Am I correct in thinking that was a stone-cold clue that he made trips with the 2nd ten and I was too stupid/arrogant to lay my itty-bitty pocket pair down at that point? A few hands later, guess what.

In hand 1, I would normally fold. In hand 2, you have to call as you are far too committed to fold, he could be making this move with a single Q or even have QJ and think it is good against your AQ or something.

Can you clarify that point about the 2nd hand, I didn't quite get it.

No worries... The pot is $3 (from the flop action) + $3 (your bet) + $4.9 (his raise), so the pot is now $10.90. You have to call only another $1.9 more so you only have to be good 17.5% of the time to make this call profitable. So, all those times he make the same move with a worse hand (like when he has QJ and he make top two pair but you have a better two pair, or when he feels that he is committed to the pot with AQo, or when he has KQ and has picked up a draw and so on) have to happen at least 17.5% of the time, which it will, so you have to call because you are committed.
