Default Re: Am I insane? (89s in huge pot)

Ok, how far off was my thinking during the hand?

Post UTG+1 (obviously dumb, I don't really know what I was thinking)

Preflop:
Call seems obvious with this much in the pot.

Flop:
Not really very strong, but I still might have the best hand at this point. I 3-bet to try and isolate SB and wasn't terribly thrilled to see MP1 call. SB caps, eh, call.

Turn:
SB could be checkraising here and I would like to see a showdown so I just check(in retrospect this is probably really weak). MP1's bet suprised me a bit but when SB just calls I I'm getting such good pot odds I call.

River:
Doesn't seem likely this card is going to be relevent so I just check planning on calling 1 bet.

Final Pot: 19 BB

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero has 8h 9d (two pair, eights and twos).
MP1 has 7s 6c (two pair, sixes and twos).
MP3 has Jd Ah (one pair, twos).
SB has 7d 5s (one pair, twos).
Outcome: Hero wins 19 BB. </font>

The reason I posted this hand is because I thought I played it poorly and I'm a little worried about becoming too result-oriented.
