How would you play this?

Home game NLHE. My image is tight. I'm in the small blind with an M~10 or 11. A player with a big stack who has been coming in for a 3X BB raise virtually every hand comes in for 3X BB, a guy who has no clue (a few hands ago played Q4s from UTG and raped somebody when he turned 2 pr) just calls. It is folded to me and I look down at pocket 10s. I push. Initial raiser goes all in over top and dumb guy folds. I know I'm in trouble... he tables QQ and I'm out. As it played down the flop was all low cards so had I called the raise I would have pushed on that flop. Anybody do anything differently? I think folding and calling is for bitches here given the players involved in the hand, but I also ended up riding the pine.

    looks like you were goin all-in anyway, maybe you could've picked up a tell if you slowed down a bit? I don't know your stack size, but generally you do not want to get involved with chip leaders without premium hands.

    No other way to play it. You weren't pushing him off since you had little fold equity to his stack and he was already in for 3/10ths of yours. When you get around or below 10xBB just look for a good hand and make a stand.
