Yeah i was'nt pleased with the way i played this.
The main reason being, i never found out were i was, and just gambled hoping he had overs.
I had it in mind to fold but the size of his flop bet made me think that he just wanted me to go away, so i insta pushed.

i think you're ahead here if he has a small flush he is going to bet more on the turn.
maybe 88 with a spade

Yikes, with your cold call PF I think I muck this on the flop. We really know nothing about his hand. If he has Ax with a spade, he is a favorite on the flop.

I guess that's a great turn to c/r, because he may muck if he thinks you have a 5. Pretty sure he has an overpair since he bet the turn, so there are 4 PP's you beat and 4 that beat you. If you give him credit for a double barrel bluff, than I guess you can ship it in on the turn.

Personally I don't really like stacking off in this spot, and wait for a better spot. It's still super early.

he raised from button and you didnt repop with 10 10 here? I think most of the trouble stems from this...he is getting what he wants which is to be aggressive from position and your hand is pretty under repped...why would he slow down here when you look so weak...as played I like a CR on flop and see what happens...any reads on him?

No reads to early.
My reasoning missplaced or not behind cold calling the buttons raise was that i did'nt,
ironicaly as it turned out want to build a big pot so early oop.
Unless i hit my set of course.
Cheers

I am finding it hard not to be result orientated and reveal the result of the hand but suffice to say i should have reraised pre flop and give myself the chance to get away from my hand.
result in white
err how do you post in white help/link pls
thanks
