good fold? I figured split pot at best

Yeah, fold that.

Probably would have raised on the flop ($4 maybe). Someone would probably call you with a K, and if the turn goes differently you can push hard.

yeh i felt like slowplaying this baby, didnt look like there was anything that could turn my hand sour on the turn.... apart from one of two cards (the kings!)

Eh...even a split pot ain't that bad. Not sure I woulda folded, but I can understand it.

I can totally understand calling the flop. Really, the only card that can hurt you is a King, and that will not come enough times to warrant worrying about it. If you're not going to slowplay a flopped boat, what ARE you going to slowplay?

Not true. Anyone holding a king can fill up on the turn or the river and have you beat with the higher boat.

Bottom heavy boats should always be played aggressively, because they can sink fast. In other words, anytime the pair is bigger than the set like TTTKK.

In this case the fold was bad on the turn. No reason to fold a split pot. That's a little weak tight if you ask me.

But it's not guaranteed to be split.

Anyone with a bigger pair in the pocket has him beat.

There's also the possibilty of someone pulling quads there. Remember, three people in the pot. Three tens already seen. It can't be split three ways! Someone in there can beat a pair of tens.
