$10 NLHE Full Ring: "No idea what I'm doing" hand

[watchtowel]

I normally cbet here but I decided to check and give under pairs more confidence. At what point can you tell someone maybe made trips or just think 10s or something are good?

Wow that really is a weird "wtf" line you took.

Start by making your 3-bet a lot larger. A pot sized bet is around $1.20 I think, so $1 seems about right. Bigger if you're against a drooler (which you almost certainly are). Even if you had gone as high as $1.40, I wouldn't scold you.

Underpairs expect you to bet, so bet. A $1.05 c-bet here should be standard.

After you get min-raised on the turn, I am not super happy! I don't want to fold but I'd feel really gross doing anything else as well.
