Looks good against this guy

looks good.
I would usually raise slightly more on the flop but otherwise I don't see anything that could have happened differently

well played.

Re: 200 NL, TT, I take a high variance line.
 

i really think you should raise more on the flop, hands that you are ahead of that are going to call are going to be calling the raise regardless (and if you decide on playing for stacks on the flop anyway so getting repopped doesnt matter), why take a chance that the turn card will kill your action?

Re: 200 NL, TT, I take a high variance line.
 

I play it the same way. Your ahead of most of his range for just calling your flop raise, as this type of player will usually 3 bet all 2pair, straight or overpair type hands Only thing i see beating you is a Qh-xh type hand.
Well played
