Default Hand from last night #2 - Reverse implied odds?

5/10 game that has become 6-handed but is still juicy. Clown min-raises UTG (very wide range of hands ). Fairly solid player calls on the button and I defend my BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Stack sizes all pretty close and not an issue here.

Flop: (3 players, $65) T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
I check, UTG checks (he missed), Button bets $50 and I check-raise to $150.

Button would try to pick up the pot with a lot of junk here...but I might as well have 72o. I am either taking the pot down right now or flailing badly on the turn.

As soon as I raised I hated it. Anyone just check-fold the flop? I feel like that is kind of weak for a short game where my hand is best a huge percentage of the time. But being OOP on that board makes it really easy to outplay me if someone was so inclined. Thankfully these people are not inclined...but someday I will be in game where they are.

Sorry if these are super boring. But I talked about them with my friend who is a smart guy and does OK in these games and I disagreed with everything he said. Your thoughts?
