I have to think you're beat by a J on the flop here. And if he had AQ/AK, then by checking the turn to him after the reraise, you let him use his position to muscle you off your best hand. But I think you probably prefer a better opportunity to win a pot like that, I mean you weren't heads up...
I actually like your PFR, here's why: it's hard enough to beat 1 hand with 10s, much less 3 limpers. 10s are better preflop than postflop, so play them like it. I just would have liked to see a little more clout on that bet, maybe like $2.50-3. Chase out the suited gappers and other shit. And I also like that you lead out with a bet on the flop, and it's a decent size. Then he reraises (min.) and then follows up on the turn with a 2x flop size bet. When the villian escalates the bet like that from position, I usually fold, unless I have a solid read based on previous play.
With 10s and Js, if they're not overcards when the flop comes, they usually don't go too far. That is why I advocate for playing them harder early. Be happy with taking down modest pots early instead of getting involved in call down games where someone very likely has paired the overcard on the board.
