This guy was 22/16, I he donks a set or big combo draw. I raise small thinking it would encourage action.

He checks turn, do I bet call here?

I make it like ~$100 on the flop.

As played I'm not sure on the turn ... but I probably bet/call.

I think I check here, if we bet and he shoves I think we are mostly toast

I make it 80-100 on the flop and check behind turn as DoubleD said only to add, that he will put us on a draw and may bluffbet the river more often if we c/b here.

Question: What if villain donks on a club river?

Yea as the two guy above me said def make it more on flop. I think this will also encourage BB to shove rather than put you in this gay spot

Is the other guy really bad? ... cause if the other guy is kinda bad than BB is more likely to be leading the flop with AQ,KQ(maybe QJ) as well as with the sets, straights, 2 pair, and draws.

bet the flop more, and i think you have to b/c the turn.

he can easily have AQ, KQ here or a fd, and i think its very unlikely that sets or 2 pair combos that you are now behind don't felt the flop given its board texture.

I agree about the flop bet being bigger, I think it might encourage a push from his whole range mor than a small raise did.

I decided to bet/call the turn even though I threw up a little when he pushed. I was show 10 10 for the boat.

In hindsight, was my vomitting on the turn a signal that I should consider checking behind hoping he bluffs missed rivers. Any merit to a bet/fold here?

naa, TT shouldnt be in his turn range, he played it terrable as he should have shoved the flop.
i think theres a chance villain just calls your small flop raise with a draw getting great odds, and obviously having no fold equity if he shoves over you, so i think i would bet/call the turn. im pretty sure hes stacking off with a AQ, probably KQ and QJ also.
