Default TT against overcard flop

UTG+2 is LP after 13 hands (69/0)
MP1 has the dice icon
CO is LP after 5 hands (60/0) also short stacked ($9.46)
Button is LA after 47 hands (70/13)

This is a good table for me, but I always have trouble with TT against an overcard flop. When do I turn on the aggression and when do I cut my losses?

Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button caps</font>, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, CO calls.

The button capping makes me think he has AK at the worst, but probably a big PP.

Flop: (20.50 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls.

I bet out the flop here to see where I stand. The raise by the villian tells me he paired it up or the K doesn't scare him. Called to see the turn with the thought that I'd fold UI.

Turn: (14.25 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG+2 checks, MP1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero folds, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls.

Turn didn't help me or anyone that I could see. So check/fold was my line. Does anyone see another way to play this?

River: (17.25 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
UTG+2 checks, MP1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds.

Final Pot: 18.25 BB
