$20 TT UTG field of limpers followed by a raise from the blinds

[holdem17]

I always limp with big hands early levels early position. I think its +EV in the long run not to get too much invested early on without a made hand.

The reason why I pushed is because I really thought this is a play that is made often by a poor player with small pp to either steal preflop or play against 1 opponent. I normally lay this hand down no problem but against this guy I couldnt lay it down. It ended up working out in the end he called and had 66 and my TT held. I think this might be -EV in the long run, but if he holds lower pockets more than higher pockets wouldnt this be +EV? I am not saying that he will be holding lower pockets more than higher pockets, just asking a question.
