Wow did I screw this one up...

Bubble time...I've got a super tight image, which has allowed me about 5 or so steals so far, level 6. I haven't shown down an of them, but I did call a really short stack all-in with good odds with QJ and beat out his 55. I've also let one or two pots go, when reraised or bet into hard on the flop.

Seat 3: Hero($4,060 in chips)
Seat 7: Ebsen ($5,700 in chips)
Seat 9: tolly6412 ($3,850 in chips)
Seat 10: sneakysnake3 ($1,390 in chips)

ANTES/BLINDS
tolly6412 posts blind ($150), sneakysnake3 posts blind ($300).

Dealt to Hero - [10H,10D]

PRE-FLOP
Hero bets $600
Ebsen folds
tolly6412 calls $450
sneakysnake3 folds.

FLOP [board cards 9H,3D,AH ]
tolly6412 bets $500
Hero bets $1,000
tolly6412 calls $500.

TURN [board cards 9H,3D,AH,9C ]
tolly6412 bets $1,000
Hero calls $1,000.

RIVER [board cards 9H,3D,AH,9C,KS ]
tolly6412 bets $1,250 and is all-in
Hero folds.


I think my biggest mistake was calling on the turn, but did I play the flop right?

raise to 1000-1400 preflop, minraising with TT is probably the worst thing you could have done. and then you minraised the flop, which once again was stupid because it gave you no information whatsoever, therefore you really have no idea what he has which makes the rest of your decisions 10 times harder.

totally agree with bair. Push those 10's hard to kick out all those crappy Ax hands that ppl want to play. If someone does call, then you can put them on at least something decent. When the flop comes, push in another 1K chips and see what happens. If they re-raise you, figure they have and A and get out - you still have 2k chips left, more than enough. Don't min-raise unless you hold a monster.
