Default Overplayed top two pair?

This hand came up in our home game yesterday. I might have a slight tilting problem here due to a couple of bad beats and a new player who was making the game exceptionally slow. It's kinda frustrating to get crappy hands throughout the evening, especially when you have to wait for like five minutes for the next hand, just to see things haven't got any better.

Villain is tight-passive postflop, but very loose preflop. He's the kind of a player who's always afraid of the worst, but he had a pretty nice evening before we started playing NLHE, so I think he was in the mood to gamble.

No-Limit Hold'Em Blinds 0,10€/0,20€ Max Buy-In 20,00€

Button(1€)
SB(20€)
BB(19€)
Hero(16€)
UTG+1(11€)
CO(15€)

I have KsTd UTG I limp-in, the whole table calls.

The flop comes: Kh Th 5s (1,20€)
SB bets 0,40€
BB calls 0,40€
Hero raises to 4,00€
3 folds
SB calls 3,60€
BB folds

Turn: 8c (9,60€)
SB checks
Hero bets All-In (11,80€)
SB calls 11,80€

River: 3s (33,20€)

I think I misplayed this hand on every street except maybe preflop, I had a good chance to see a cheap flop with a fairly good hand. Feel free to criticize everything

You might wonder why I raised so much on the flop. Well I somehow calculated that there was about 3 euros in the pot(WTF [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]). Perhaps I was also a little too excited to finally see hand, I don't know. I'm an idiot.

I don't mind how you played this hand. I could see him on a flush draw or a good king. Although, it gets troubling when he calls your bet on the turn, but how could you have known?

your flop raise was a little big, but other than that it looks fine. if people are gonna call overbets, then do it. i like the turn push, as you didn't have enough left to really do anything else. only a set beats you so far, so put it in.

I would say that you played this correctly on every street except pre-flop. Fold pre-flop. I guess your flop bet was a little large, but it didn't kill the action so that's fine. If he had a set, oh well.
