.05/.10 Live Game My stack ($10.40) Villian (about $7)

I'm dealt A-10 hearts on the button with 3 callers and i call as well.

Flop comes (7-10-10) 2 diamonds and a heart. Everyone checks to me

and I bet .30 into about .70 my standard c-bet. everyone folds to hi-jack

seat

(one before the button) who raises to .70 i smooth call. The turn is a (2)

of clubs and he ponders for a bit before betting $2 into $2.20 I go into the

tank and before i could do anything i timed out and folded....any thoughts??

How do you time out in a live game?

I'd probably raise preflop to around $0.60ish. As played I'd bet like $0.55 or so on the flop. If your standard steal bet is less than half the pot it's most likely too small.
What to do about the raise depends on how the hi-jack guy plays. Going for a check-raise in an unraised pot is really strange but I'm sure it's very possible he could have a 10. I think calling is alright.
As played, on the turn you have around $4 more left behind so I'd just shove all-in.

By the way, a c-bet is a steal made made when you raised preflop. Since you didn't raise preflop, and you have an actual hand, I'd call that a value bet and not a c-bet.

You played it right but on the turn, once he bet 2 bucks and had 5 left, there should be no pondering, all in on turn is correct play and put him all in.

definately should not have got timed out.

You have trip 10's with top kicker. The only hands that beat you are 10 7 and 77. Both are very unlikely. Anything other than pushing is pretty bad.
