I know I won the pot but still wonder - as I thought he was on a flush draw- whether the maths were right to get it all in?

    Given the way this hand plays i personally think your lucky to be ahead, even then things like QJss TJss still have lots of equity.

    Never folding this flop @ 4NL, most players will be thinking TT+ is the nuts.

    That said, I'd raise bigger on the flop, 4 bet bigger, once he 5bets just ship it.

    Your raise sizing needs alot of work. You shouldn't need to make an 8-bet on the flop to get it all-in.

    You shouldn't even be able to make an 8-bet, or anywhere near that, with just 100BB.

    Must confess that I was worried at first that he might fold to a bigger big bet.

    He has nearly 35% equity so your 1st bet just denies him the right odds.
    The 2nd bet he shouldn't call more than 39p.
    Your 3rd & last bets are giving him the right odds to call.
    Bet bigger - if you think your 5 kicker is good.
