How'd I play this hand? Was reraise on flop acceptable, to find out if he was just taking a shot at a low flop, then after a call & another raise, I know my hand's no good. Any tips?

I like the raise on the flop to see where you are, but not sure i like the preflop call. While you have a large stack compared to the blinds, you're in a bad position to just call as you have an EP raise to call and several left to act after you.

I don't mind the call preflop even though you are OOP. It's pretty clear cut how you are going to be playing this hand on the flop. You're either going to be folding when there are overcards, or betting for information as you did in this case when you could potentially have the best hand. I like the flop raise for this reason.
Well played, I think.

Well played. I like the preflop call and the raise for info on the flop. You got the information you needed and made the correct decision based on that info. It seems to me like toro had himself a nice overpair.
