First, don't include your opponents hands, post those results later. However, include your reads on your opponents such like Loose-passive, tight-aggressive, weak-tight, etc.

Pretending not to know your opponents hands:

Raise the flop you have top pair and top kicker. Call a 3-bet.

Other than that you played it fine not knowing any reads on your opponents.

I agree with Joe. Just wanted to point out something here since you saw/posted all other hands. If UTG raised here like he should have you would have to muck preflop and never get a chance to catch your set. Passive play like this can get expensive in the long run. (even though in this particular hand he still would have lost to KK)

This is a good point for a new poster, well done. I would like to point out that our hero has 'trips' on the river. A 'set' is when you hold a pocket pair and make 'trips' on the board. Such that you hold 77 on a AK7 flop. The hands are very different.

Peace,
