Button ($92.4)
SB ($52.37)
BB ($25.25)
Hero ($46.85)

MP1 ($47.05)

<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $0.5</font>, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2</font>, UTG+1 calls $2, MP2 folds, Button calls $2, SB calls $1.50.
Turn: ($11) A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, Button checks.
River: ($11) 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $5</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $15</font>, UTG+1 calls $15, Button folds, SB folds.
Final Pot: $46

My Thoughts
First, I always question how to play middle pairs from UTG. The table had been somewhat passive to this point so I thought I might be able to see a flop for cheap, which I did.
The flop was pretty good for 8s I think, so I decided to go ahead and raise.
After the turn checked around and the flop bettor led again, I put him on a 9 w/ no kicker. I wasn't too worried about someone having a 4 or an ace, as I thought an ace would have bet the turn.
I thought I could move the bettor off his 9 with a sizable raise and didn't expect any callers, except possibly the bettor.
