Final pot: $7.1

When the 4 came on the turn I was happy. When the villian bet I thought "How could the 4 have helped this guy" I put him on A 10 but felt my hand was too good to fold. I thought I was getting by cheaply enough to finish the hand. How would you have played it?

You need to raise the turn here bad. There's like a 99.87 (exact calculation, trust me) chance that you're ahead, and there are a lot of cards that could come on the river that would suck (T, A, heart).

River's safe, raiiiiiiissssee for the love of God. There's no way BB has KK, QQ, or JJ, and I really doubt he has a straight either.

There's a ton of hands worse than AT/T9 that BB is betting there. I raise the turn big.

dude definitely raise the turn. Raise the river. Raise somewhere. If he has AT and played it like a donkey, so be it. But you def lost a ton of value.

Do you think the NL25 level of play here has any bearing on how I should play. More than once I have been caught by pocket Ace's and King's because they limped.

There is absolutely no way that from that action you can put him on AT. That is the most weak-tight of all weak-tight thoughts there.

Playing passively kept you from losing your stack this time, but calling down with a set just because a straight is possible is going to lose you money in the long run.
