The Villain here is a fairly passive player. The person on the button is semi-loose and very aggressive. BB is an unknown as he just sat down. Should I have raised preflop? That forces me to lead the flop a good amount of the time into two pretty loose players. Or should I wait until the flop like I did? I checked, folding to the nonaggressive players, and check/raising the aggressive player. Is this my best line here? Should I call the last flop small bet? The pot has to be 25 dollars at the end if I'm gonna win with my set. He likely already has a set of 7's or 3's, so that might happen.

if i don't raise pf i play it as you did.
i will usually raise pf here, moreso if BB is likely to fold.
