I think the 10 was a weak kicker to start with, I would fold.

PF I'd like to think so. A10s is a hand I'd like to see a cheap flop w/ to hit such a combo draw and play accordingly. Don't mind a limp, but be wary on an A high board.

Preflop raise is fine. You could also limp behind.

This is an action flop, but I don't mind the bet. I think you have odds to call the push.

I did make the call, though in retrospect I wish I would have checked this flop. I called in a combo draw b/c of the str8/bd fd/potential overcard.
