Default Unbelieveable 3rd hand of a SNG

Party 100+9 SNG. All players are still relatively close to their starting point.

Let me preface it by saying that I played the hand horrible. I was a little tired, and was tilting a bit from a previous tourney where I lost heads-up.

I get A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in late position.

UTG limps, UTG+1 limps, MP raises to 100, I call (first mistake, I should have re-raised or folded), the SB calls, the BB calls, and then UTG wakes up and pushes all-in. UTG+1 folds, and MP re-raises all-in (he had UTG covered slightly), I think for a second and call (horrible mistake, at this point I should have put someone on AA, but for some reason I just didn't believe that was what I was up against). Then much to my shock the SB calls all-in too.

So we have 4 players all-in pre-flop on the 3rd hand.

The board comes up (2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]).

I thought it was a pretty good board, with me making TPTK and no flush draws out. Here's the hands:

UTG: A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
MP: J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Me: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB: A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

The SB wins with his straight, which had a 3.7% of winning before the flop.

First off, the limp re-raise from UTG was good, I don't usually see it with AKo, but he probably played it well. MP played it well too, by raising and then pushing in with his pair. I played it god awful, and need to recognize when my tilt takes over the thinking, although my thinking was that these players could be on smaller aces and I had a real nice chance. The only person who played it worse was the winner. How could he call 700 chips on AJo being the 4th one in the pot??
