    He min-raised me right away, should I have put in a third raise to say $10 and shut down if he calls?

    You played it fine. You got a cheap showdown and that is what you wanted. He made a EV- raise, and just got lucky by hitting the turn. The river pairing the board's TP allowed you a cheap showdown. Maybe a little Karma saving you a tough river decision.
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.
