TT not looking so good.

This is definitely a tough spot. They could easily have an overpair as well.

However, the check-raise on the 535 flop could easily represent a pocket pair that is higher than 5, and then the villain was going to go all-in no matter what the turn was. I guess that only has you beating 66, 77, and 99 at this point.

Fold is probably best. As for pre-flop, I think you've gotta re-raise it. A call would give everybody else good odds to see a flop, and when you do that, as soon as on overcard hits the board, you are left guessing with TT.

I flat pre, really don't like 3betting. Is it for value or is it a bluff? If it's for value I think you're wrong, I think it's pretty unlikely you're ahead of his continuing to 3bet range in this spot, unless you have some read that he flips out vs. 3bets.

The problem with the flop is your sizing was so small that he could have read it as weak and decided to attack it, maybe with his entire continuing range which is probably something like 88+, AQ+ or something along those lines, but TBH I think this is more for value from JJ+ than bluffs.

I'm folding the turn, looks like we're crushed. Even 88 just got there, and any overcard BD flush draw flip outs (which I don't think he has many of here) picked up equity.

Against an unknown at 10nl how do you play TT postflop when there is just a J, Q, K or A (just one and the rest <T) on a range of dry flops (i.e. Ks8d2h) and more wet boards (i.e. Qd9d8h)?

Can we fold pre? If the name of the game is exploitation and we're vs. an unknown, it might be better to fold from this position. That being said if I found myself in this position I likely call one maybe two reasonable bets on dry boards with one over, and folding the flop on a lot of wet boards.

Raising an UTG open so early shows massive strength, so we're kinda overrepping our hand. I probably raise AA-KK here and call with the rest of my playing range, and if you care to GTO-balance your range, add A2s-A4s bluffs to the mix. As played b/f the flop, this isn't really a spot where we expect a villain to go ape on his AKo, or ever intend to c/r and give up when called.
