I won the pot but I got berated at the end of the hand for catching the ten. Was calling his .30 cent turn bet bad? I figured it was a pretty weak bet considering how much was in the pot.

You really should have bet the river more, if you are going to call the turn bet.

Exactly. You want him to call about a $2 bet on the river when you hit to make your call on the turn OK.

yeah i realized that after I probably could have gotten him to put in more money. I know a value bet is how ever much you think the guy will call, but is there a standard percentage of the pot that you should bet?

On the turn you have 4 outs so your odds of hitting a straight are roughly 12 to 1. Since the pot odds are only a little better than 5 to 1, you need to be sure you can get more than $2 more from him for this to be a profitable call - as played - it was -EV.

PRetty much what everyone else has said, bet more on the river to justify the call on the turn
