Big mess with TT

Multitabling so I don't have any significant reads...

Pretty much I was completely lost both preflop and on the flop...so I just mashed the pretty "Call" button [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG raises, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero calls, CO folds, Button folds, SB 3-bets, BB folds, UTG caps, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero calls, SB calls.

Flop: (21 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5 players)
SB bets, UTG raises, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero calls, SB 3-bets, UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (18 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (5 players)
SB bets, UTG calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero folds.

Seems like I obviously muck on the turn (unless I can call to try and spike a T [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]), but I'm pretty sure I should have bailed either preflop or on the flop...I just didn't know where. Do I muck pf when UTG raises even with the coldcallers?

But, regardless, I think I bungled this one pretty good alright...replies appreciated.

I would say that you should have never have called the bet on the flop when you didn't hit your set. With the cap on the flop, you have to think that at least one of teh players in the hand has a monstor pair. When in that situation, you simply have to hope to hit your set on the flop, because god knows you were being laid the right pot odds and implied odds preflop, but prepare to release the hand to a bet on the flop, even if your tens are an overpair to the hig card on the board.
