UTG over 72 hands: 29.2/5.6/7.7 with 100% continuation bet

Blinds: $0.10/$0.25

Stack sizes:
UTG: $25.60
UTG+1: $13.65
MP1: $24.75
MP2: $16.85
MP3: $19.75
CO: $10
Button: $24.50
SB: $75.35
Hero: $35.90

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is BB with A T
UTG raises to $1, 6 folds, SB calls, Hero calls.

Flop: 4 T 6 ($3, 3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG bets $2, SB calls, Hero raises to $10, UTG folds, SB calls.

Turn: 8 ($25, 2 players)
SB checks, Hero is all-in $24.9, SB ????

Results:
Final pot: $25

I really didn't think the hand through. I focused a lot on the fact that UTG always c-bets, so I thought I could push him off.
When SB called twice, I saw that he was really loose especially on the flop.

What would you have done differently?

 at first I thought it sucked, but given those reads its probably not bad at all

 A raise to 7 on the flop is sufficient. I'd probably check the turn for pot control reasons, and to open up villains calling/betting range.

UTG's range preflop is probably something like 99+ AQ+, so I'm not sure why you're in this pot. That said, I like a flop lead here. If we lead, UTG will let us know if we're beat, and we can value bet the fishy small blind. Check raising bloats the pot - $10 is alot to find out if UTG does in fact have a big PP.

I really don't know what I'd do on the turn as played. The SB's line looks like a draw, but it's a fairly dry board.. I'm worried we're being slowplayed, but he could just be a donk with JT. I'd probably wimp out and check behind, but that's because I'm a nit. I just don't want to play a 300BB pot here.

I'll be interested to hear what others think about this hand.

 i might call on the flop as Opp is likely drawing to 3 outs or has you beat anyhow without improvement.

I wayyyy overplayed TPTK here. The only hand that calls the turn beats me. I could of checked behind and got a cheap showdown since SB isn't that aggressive. I also could of value bet, but the pot is so huge, I'd be pot committed anyway.

SB folded and said he was on a straight draw. On the Flop he had 2.125 to 1 odds to see the turn, so obviously he doesn't know much about pot odds.

I put my whole stack on the line with one pair.

Next time, should I just value bet every street and fold to a reraise?
