Peculiar JTo in BB, massive pot

[private joker]

No individual reads (there are simply more Party 2/4 players than my PT export notes can keep track of, evidently), and although this was my first orbit at the table, I could tell it was very, very loose and full of bad players.

Preflop, I was getting 9:1 on my call and closing the action. JTo is weak, but I think it's a relatively clear call.

On the flop, I decided to bet into the PF raiser to try to push out the stragglers by charging them 2 bets. Boy, did that fail. With two guys cold-calling, I figured my TPMK might not be good. Luckily I turned top 2, and had to check-raise. Or did I?
