Default Re: (6.50) 10 10 as an overpair.

Why open-limp early with TT?? If you're going to play it like a small pocket pair, then you might as well fold on the flop (set it or forget it).

Why simply call a half-pot bet on the flop? You're just daring everyone with a face card to come along for the ride.

Tens should be played fast or slow.

AL,

I think you played it fine. What I'm thinking is that SB has some crappy hand like top pair (that's on the board). What I like about flat calling the flop is that it lets you immediately find out if the pre-flop aggressor (MP1) has an over pair. I don't think he's shoving AK/AQ here for example but probably would raise something like JJ-AA.
