PF standard. Good flop for TT, so cbet is fine. The rest of your line is questionable IMO. What is the purpose of the c/r ott? Why not just continue to bet, or having checked, flat CO’s bet? It’s a good runout for TT so far, but CO could be floating flop with 2 overs or a smaller pair. Obvious he could also have a hand like 99, 44 or even 88 that has you beat. Your TT is a good combo for this board, but it’s not a monster by any means. Pot control would be desirable with this turn, so I’d lean toward a small bet or a c/c.

AP, you rep a combo like 99 or 44 with the c/r. CO still calls the c/r. What hands do you think CO will call the turn c/r with that you beat? Any overcard floats would not continue. Maybe a smaller pocket pair, but likely not. Calling the c/r likely means CO has TT beat. If you’re going to risk your stack, why would you c/c otr? You’re better off shoving yourself; at least that might give some fold equity, although not much given CO’s call of your c/r. AP, it’s a clear fold when CO shoves otr, IMO.

Is this the final table? Seems like ICM suicide to c/r the turn and try to play for stacks by the river.

Looks good until you check raise the turn. I would go into c/c mode oop vs the big stack on the turn and river.
