never limp preflop unless you have a very good reason to, next time raise to 4bb (0.08) with your entire range preflop whenever there is a limper. you completely misplayed the hand preflop.

Hi jokersgrinn,

partly bad luck, partly bad play.
Have you seen our suggestion about preflop play?
You can find them here: How to play preflop

I would also recommend you to play always with 100 Big Blinds, which maximizes your value if you hit a strong hand. And TT is a strong one!
Here after one limper, you should have raised to 5 Big Blinds and then see it from there.

What strategy are you playing with? Have a look into our introduce yourself forum - and meet other guys who are new to Poker.

Glad to have you here,
SvenBe from Gibraltar!

Agree with comments here.

You can isolate vs the btn with a hand as strong as TT if you isolate and the BB gets involved the 'should' usually have a decent hand that is strong enough to call but not to go broke with however I still think that if you get call by BTN you should usually be ahead of their range.
