Luckyboj wins $9.63 from side pot with a straight, six high [ 6s, 5h, 4d, 3c, 2s ].

So the first hand two hands it looks like I can
t/don't want to get away from. If it was an unraised pot is there an argument for folding at any point?

Prior to this I was running well and was about $30 up.

I don't have the hand history but it went something like this.

Its folded to Luckyboj who raises 1.75 on the button.
I reraise to 7.75
He calls.
Flop is Q63 rainbow. (pot $15.75)
I bet $11.
He minraises to $22
I think and call.
Turn is an 8.
He pushes for $27.
I fold my pocket tens.
So what did I do wrong?

I actually played pretty well apart from this hand. Was up three buyins on a 20NL table before it broke up. Ended up losing $90 though.

I really could do with the Poker Gods smiling on me but my luck will turn I'm sure.
