I was hoping someone would bet so I could raise themfrom EP preflop. On the flop I raised the bettor so I could see whether or not he had a ten. After his all in I was pretty sure he did and folded. Should I have raised him on the flop or should I have played differently? No reads btw.

Currently at UB playing $50 NLHE 6max.
Bankroll: ~$1900 (Almost BR'ed for 100NL.)

I think you played the hand correctly apart from not raising preflop. At the lower limits one is very likely to get a few callers even to sizeable raises so not raising with a high PP is just asking for trouble.

His play after the flop does look like he could be holding the ten or perhaps pocket 8's, but I too would have re-raised just to be sure. And without any reads folding after his AI is a nobrainer.
