Re: 3handed 10nl, 3betting light (line check)

In a 3-handed game, you're putting the BTN on JJ+, AQ+ after calling a pf 3b?
Going for a c/r twice on two streets isn't a great move in a game like this (with two draws on the board by the turn), either. It's 10NL, they will go nuts.

From my experience at 10NL a bet always means QQ+ and often they will never 3bet AQ or AK. Most players will only call a bet with AQ+ and JJ+ too.
Its pretty tight yes, but i find that is generally what they always have

You are completely wrong, unless you are playing on some rock garden site I have never heard of.
3-betting T8o is bad, even 3-handed (especially if you think your opponent is raising very few hands!! DUCY?), unless you have a good read that you'll be able to take down the pot with a c-bet or get paid off huge if you hit. T8s is loads better, because it's more likely you'll be able to at least have a draw on the flop.
Once you hit, you didn't bet. Let me ask you a question: Are you betting here when you miss? Is it normal for you to 3-bet and then check? The point of 3-betting light, as stated in the stickied post on this board, is that c-bets = $$$. If you've followed that rule, you must bet this flop. Two pair is a pretty vulnerable hand anyway.
Your opponents checks behind on the flop. The turn probably helped him, so I guess a check-raise isn't *too* unreasonable here, but you should have raised more. You want to get some money in and now only have two streets to do it. As played, I guess you have to call his push... he's putting you on nothing and he probably has a king or a draw. You'll see a set here sometimes, but that's just bad luck.
