Sit and go tournament, blinds $1/$2. Everyone has about $100.
Several calls ($2) to to me middle position, with pocket pair 10c 10h.
I raised to $12. All folded except opponent who acts before me.
(Pot = ~$30) Flop: JavaScript 10s 4c
Opponent raised $10. I re-raised to $35. Opponent called.
(Pot = $100) Turn: 10d (Jackpot!)
Opponent raised $25. I re-raised $50 (I thought this will put him all in, but he actually have $3 left, my bad). Opponent called.
(Pot = $190) River: Qc
Opponent raised $3 (all-in).
And he turned over J J. An extremely unfortunate flop for me turned 180 degrees.
Is there something I, or my opponent could have improved? If I were him I would re-raised all in on flop already. But the 10 10 lucky bastard would have called anyways.I wonder why he did not raise pre-flop... maybe just a passive guy overall.

Brutal hand

He didn't raise preflop because of your raise. He was hoping to hit his set and outdraw AA or KK. He hit it, bet and smooth-called your raise figuring you'd put him all-in on the turn.
You played it right. If you don't get lucky, you should be going broke every time anyway.I study at KRE8R's School of Bankroll Management.

The opponent acted before me, so he just called ($2) when it was his turn to act. I was a little surprised of that.
Yep. You don't flop the 2nd best set to the best set very often. And to turn the quad to reverse fate it is quite a memory.
