"(seemed like a good idea at the time)"

That statement got me to laughing. Thanks for the laugh.

Great flop for you. But the turn is not great and you're stuck.

"I thought about raising but decided not to."

Even though you don't feel SB needs a full house for his lead-off bet, and even though no one else is showing strength here, raising seems reckless. SB, or any one of the others, especially the better in 2nd position, could have a full house. I write "especially the better in 2nd position" because someone might slow play a full house here from that position, hoping not to knock out any of the low draws.

"SB again bets out and again EVERYBODY just calls. Pretty huge pot now, over 30 big bets and again I thought about raising but didn't because of the passivity of some of the players."

Same deal as above. in my humble opinion, you only have a call here - and then only because of the size of the pot.
