I have been at the table for about 50 hands
UTG was 38/18 and not note worthy yet
BB was 48/8 and had only been here about 25 hands seeing flops but not too aggresive

Seems pretty standard. After making the raise you were priced in so if your beat your beat. Nothing you can do about it. At the 25s the BB could have anything - very often just TPGK.

Yeah, I wouldn't have raised, but once you did, you had to call his push.

Why wouldn't you want to raise in this spot?
