Default Casino San Pablo, KTs T-high flop

I decided to give live NL poker a shot because it sounded like fun. My hands don't shake in limit anymore but here it felt like the first time I'd ever played. Anyway...

1-2-2 $100 buyin, $4 to go, I think we were ~8 handed

I have about $140, everyone else has either $100 or more.

Everyone is pretty loose (calling $20 pf raises with 56o then calling down with a gutshot). There wasn't very much bluffing, just alot of min-raising, under betting the pot with bottom pair, and calling small bets but folding to big bets. It was nice because when someone made a large bet it usually meant they had it.

I get K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in MP. (I'm not sure what I should do with this, but I'd only played 1 hand in the 40 minutes I'd been there, and that was in the big blind, so I decided to limp.)

UTG limps ($4), 1 fold, I limp, guy to my left raises to $10 , 3 callers, I call.

The guy to my left would raise to $10 with a big Ace or JJ and higher. I figured he had me beat, but with so much money in the pot I decide to throw another $6 in.

(~$50) Flop T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

UTG bets $10. He could likely have 98 here. With something bigger he would bet big. I glance to the guy on my left who doesn't look happy with the flop. (He's raised to $10 with AK twice already and both times missed the flop and called down with A-high).

I think I have the best hand, so I raise $40. I probably raised too much here -- it was hard to think with these big stacks (for me).

Everyone folds to UTG who immediately raises all-in for $25 more. I'm worried about a set now, but the pot's already $135 so I call.
