Did I go too far here?

The whole table seems to be on tilt. I know I am. The problem is UTG. He's 88/4/0.6 after 300 hands. And he's winning a LOT. Have I pushed this too far?

Big Blind is playing like he has a set but I have no history to judge his play. If the whole table is on tilt he could just as easily have JJ or QQ or AK or worse. I would probably raise the turn to kick out hands on draws and anyone with a weak one pair. Alot of this comes down to your read on BB. His preflop play says big pocket but the only pocket you should be worried of is AA. I think given the state of the table you have to call down.

Agreed with everything said here. The pot is WAY too big to fold this, especially since there is no overcard on the board. Call down hoping to see AK, QQ, JJ, or A-10 from the bettor and other players.

This looks fine.

I'm not sure where you think you went too far in this hand. If BB made a set against a couple PF raisers, I would expect a check/raise on the flop or turn. The way he played it, I expect to see AT/KT often enough to justify making it to showdown.

Anyway, I'd put in a raise on the turn to fold out the 1-pair hands, then call him down or bet the river if he checks to you.

I want to raise the turn, but I don't like getting 3-bet.

Does this mean you would raise or not? Why?

Button flopped top set and MHWNG.
