    Horrible flop for a hand like that.. It wouldnt be so bad if it wasnt tens... anything lower you might be able to get away with but so many people call with hands like AT, TK, TQ etc...

    He could easily have had a hand like QK, JK, or even AK.
    • AA,KK would of most likely reraised or even raised in the first place.
    • I wouldnt put it past him to have AK Ive seen a lot of this lately players limping from EP-MP with AK hoping someone raises so they can flat call and try to decieve their opponents.
    • very doubtful he is on a flush draw since this would just be foolish
    If I was him Im quite happy calling a bet on that board with AT or even any ten in most cases as long as a heart doesnt show on the turn, then pushing on the turn which is what he could of done - although with a ten it seems to me he has a hand like QK, maybe JK at the worst.

    Good laydown, you're not really beating anything on that board other than a bluff or a flush draw.

    On a side note, I probably raise more preflop.

    If you are gonna short stack you need to play alot more aggressive than this.

    Min-raising against a field of limpers????

    Just go all in and pick up the 1$ or get a caller with you being most likely a big favorite PF.

    I wouldn't end up in that type of spot but if I was I think I'd have to call off your last 4$.
