I KNOW IT WAS A CHEAPY TOURNEY, BUT C'MON!

You got the money in which is fine, but you should have bet somewhere. Checking the flop is ok, but I think if you give too much action on the turn after checking the flop you will be screaming that you have a ten. Id probably bet the flop and push the turn depending on pot and stack sizes.

im going broke here, and im doing it on the flop. i hate slowplaying trips in position... although i might toss out a min bet to make it look like im just picking it up.

you did fine, he played like a donk not raising you pf with AT.
