Haha agreed, tbh I've always been pretty bad at playing the pocket tens

Raise more pre and shove pre if you think he is messing around.

I would jam it but I just lost $50 on TT and am not ready to get burned again. I just didn't know if calling would be smart with the flush draw

dont let how much you've lose or won affect your decision making in any hand, otherwise you're destined to make incorrect decisions. if you have a read hes never folding pre, we could 5bet get it in vs him if you want. otherwise i either call his open or make my 3b iso bigger. definitely folding to his 4b if he 4b vs my bigger open. fold flop as played

pocket tens are not easy to play, especially against such aggressive players. if you don't want to shove pre, it's better to fold. you don't have the odds for setmining.

and why you play with only 42 bb ? i guess the 50bb-tables, but i would allways autoreload to maximum, because you want to win the the maximum with your good hands.

Flat or 3bet bigger PF. Don't flat the 4bet, either shove or fold IMO.

Pocket T's are a difficult hand to play period because they almost always have 1 overcard to them on the board and they are just strong enough to make the decision to fold harder. If I were you I would probably play a smaller pot IP with this hand. I rarely if ever 3 bet TT because it bloats the pot and you get yourself in trouble. I highly recommend flatting 88, 99, and TT because they play very similarly. It's a small hand so the small hand small pot mantra applies. Plus you can always bloat the pot after you've flopped a set.

Honestly I had just deposited $10 on Pstars, my real roll is on FTP but every once in a while I like to play pstars when I'm running cold

Preflop is god-awful...if he's aggro just shove to his 4bet and also 3bet more. Also always get it in when facing a 4bet with TT when you're 40BB deep IMO.

I also call post flop here.
