I'd raise it to $4 preflop, but your raise is good as well. Everything else is great.

With two people already committing 2xBB each you prob shouda bet 16-20xBB. I find in 25NL you gotta lay down the hammer, and lay it down hard. With AA, KK, QQ, or AK, you gotta raise minimum 6xBB preflop, with many people already in the pot preflop raise minumum 16xBB. Cause escencially your raise is telling him if he hits trips he gets your stack so hes getting about 8:1 implied pot odds versus 1 in 7 chance of hitting trips.

I dont like the huge raise on the pot. You have to assume your ahead here, and a $7 raise he commits your stack. This probably wont do anything about your loss, but if he had 99-QQ you can probably max your earnings, or if he had something like AQ that he folds to on the flop, but could hit and pay you off, or let him bluff at it.

Your hand is still strong after the flop and your only costing yourself money by betting it so hard.
