Default Need evalutation of my double shoot out hand

We are 5 handed with blinds at 50/100

Hero is sb with Ten [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and T1300 chips

Button has T2200 chips and has been playing very loose and aggressive

BB has been very tight, solid and has not slowplayed anything

Action is UTG and UTG+2 folds, button limps, Hero completes and BB checks.

Flop is Ten [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Pot size 300

Action: Hero checks, BB checks, Button bets 200, Hero calls, BB folds

Pot size: 700

turn card: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Hero checks, Button bets 400, Hero moves in for 900

Did I play this correct? Should I have moved in on the flop? I really need your analysis, thank you so much in advance!

Flop isn't too scary but I'd still protect the 2-pair here and bet out, wouldn't mind taking it down right there.

My thinking preflop is, its only 50 more chips to me, my cards are suited and I'm getting 5 to 1 against a predictable opponent (BB) and a loose and aggressive opponent who I can trap if I really like the flop. I flopped top and bottom, but I didn't want to push to hard until I saw the turn, just in case a 9 falls to counterfeit me and there were no real draws out there except for either JQ, 78 or J8. I could of pushed the flop, but when ur 5 handed, you don't get many opportunities to accumulate chips and this was a prime situation.

I probably lead 9Tx flop in a limped pot. 78, 89, 9T, TJ, JQ, 33, QT, and QK are all reasonable holdings.

If we were a little shorter, I might get tricky and just decide to find the best way to get our chips in (which is probably passively).

I like checkcalling the flop and betting the turn so long as a 9 doesn't come.

I don't think you played it badly at all. There are quite a few lines you could take, all with the same goal of getting all your chips in the middle (hopefully as the favorite, of course). I could see myself leading out on the flop with a weak bet in hopes of getting raised. Check-calling the flop and leading the turn. Check-calling the flop and check-raising the turn (which you did). Even if he has QJ you've still got quite a few outs on the river (unless he has [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]s).

I probably bet the flop, but looks good to me.

Is this second round of double shootout?

Also, is this a satellite to Bahamas on Stars where 2nd and 3rd get $650, or is this a double shootout where 9-1 pays?

Just looking at the hand I think you might as well get it in on the flop as I suspect there are a number of hands that you have beaten will call you.

So, overall, is the consensus that the play I took is correct? I've thought about playing it a couple different ways, but I felt this was the best way given my reads of my opponents and my current chip stack.
