I had only been at the table for eight hands. I got a nice run of cards the first few hands, so it may have looked like I was pushing the table around. But I didn't have a read on this guy. I considered re-raising him all-in, then considered calling, but ultimately I just had a feeling that he had a set OR he might have landed two pair by the river. I limped because the I had raised the other two times while I was in the blinds, so I was mixing up my play. Do sometimes you have to pay to see their cards just to make sure they're not full of shit?

For all he knows u over called 2 players on a flush draw and that would look right if u'd previously been running over the table. it is possible he rivered 2 pair and grew some cajones.
might have been a good fold against the random 2 these players hold.
Nothing can be gained by such a comment. In fact such comments will make you appear weak and timid. Don't ever let someone know what you are thinking.
i wudda called u have top pair with a high kicker and yes there is a posible straight and 2pair is a posibility but there is a large pot and its about pot to call
but in that game and with the experiance i have had in this style of the player the only get pot commited in positions were they have the nuts which is the straight 6 high but the odds are unlightly the has this and the way he played the hand makes me feel like it could be a bluff or he defonately doesnt have the straight but i would be concerned about 2 pair he could of hit a low card on the flop and a 10 on the river
but position is not with him as he is not in a strong position so it is unlightly he would play 10,2 or 10,3 ect in this position so i dont understand y he would of played it
if it is a bulff he could of hit a strong hand pre flop eg a,k and bet to sell u out
or he could have had pre flop jacks so he thinks his hand will hold up
or if he had pre flop 10s which could explain the reason for the bet at the end as some of the players heve little or no exprience of poker or online poker
i hope this is useful
