Default Weak-Tightness or sense?

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB calls.

Flop: (8.50 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#CC3333">BB 3-bets</font>, Hero folds


I was playing three other hands as this hand took place, one of which was quite complex, I sort of glanced at the action and thought "two bets to me, if I'm behind I'm probably drawing dead, if I'm ahead I can easily be outdrawn, I'll fold" and moved on to the next hand.

Should I have played it differently?

Edited to add that MP1 seemed pretty weak-tight.

There's so many draws on that board that I'm inclined to think you're still ahead. Of course you can easily be outdrawn, but there's no way I'm folding here.

Reverse implied odds.

Consider that he's either a little ahead or waaayyy behind with multiple other players showing aggression. With a pair of tens in hand and a big pot, laying it down after this point is going to be very difficult.

You really think that after a raise from a weak-tight player followed by a check-raise from the BB, that you're still ahead?

I thought BB was Button. Forget my first post. Lay it down and yell at the monitor.

If the A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] is out, you're an underdog to 15 outs, and that doesn't even include what the other guy has. Why put two bets in if that is the case?
