    He seemed to be a pretty decent player, and I was worried about him slowplaying TT here, I still thought him having a 5 would be more likely, or possibly 5T, since he didn't raise pre-flop. So I called and bet the river. What hand would you put him on and would you push all in here, or re-raise him or what? I feel I was not agressive enough, partly because of both his and my big stacks. Results are in white.

    Tough one. Put it this way. If he's strong enough to call a big river bet, then he's strong enough to call a big turn reraise as well. I don't know about all in, but I would certainly bump it up to like $12-$15 after his re-raise.

    I think what people forget is that slowplaying becomes more and more unneccesary with a powerful hand as the opponent becomes more confident. I think you wanted to be a little deceptive when calling the turn re-raise here, but at that point the cats out of the bag enough to start committing the opponent.
    It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
    Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

    Yeah, that makes sense, was wondering about how to react to his re-raise for some time, hopefully I manage to get a little more out of this type of hand next time.

    Reraise on the turn.
