Another hand I like. Call the river if bet into due to the prevalence of autobetting when last to act. Flop is fine, TT3 is a good flop for any PP once you've called. Turn play is fine, too. You don't want to surrender when you would need to call 2 BB with no information, so bet it for the fold equity, info, and fact that you'd probably continue anyways. TT33 is tough to be looking at bets from the blind, no need for you to fear after a called flop.

If he has a higher pair, not much you can do, he shoulda raised flop or turn.

I like how you played this. Its a pretty good flop for you as there is only one overcard. MP2s call tell me that he doesn't have the ten and is probably fishing for some overcards to hit. Turn bet is good too as it looks like a relativly safe card. I really like the check on the river as there is a lot that can beat you and you'll usually only get called if your beat. Good hand

You played this one fine.

Checking on the river is wise with the third club, and an overpair out there.

You're probably sitting on the best hand.
