Last hand today: questionable aggression?

I read earlier about playing any suited face card in a late position if there are loose limpers in. Tried to apply this advice. How did I do?

With any hand you are going to call a bet with, you have to ask yourself if you gain more by raising. On this flop, I think you do have something to gain that is worth the extra small bet.

1) You may make a better K fold with a raise.
2) You may get a free card option on the turn.

The way you played it, I think the turn and river bets are automatic.

UTG+1's call at the end smells like he is crying...

I like the way you played this hand, but I'd raise on the flop (while it is still cheep) to shake things up. Show some agression, become the table captain.
