The flop call is fine since you have a backdoor straight draw to go along with your weak pair.

You beat a pair of tens, which is in his range. Raise to drive out MP3, and if reraised call and reevaluate on the river.

In this situation the board is draw-heavy and your two pair is vulnerable. You have been given the opportunity to protect your hand, so do so.

he beats a pair of tens but dont you think UTG would have bet the flop with a pair of tens. I dont really see many hands other than a draw that your ahead of, I would call turn and re evaluate on turn.
