Would like opinions on how I played this hand
 
Game was 1/2 NLHE, $200 max buy in. I had amassed about $650 over many hours with the same players and woke up to KK on the button in an unraised pot. I raised to $10 and the small blind (short stack with about $80) and an UTG limper ($550) called.
The flop was K-10-9 with two hearts and it was checked to me. The small blind goes all in with his last $80 and the UTG player quickly called. I reraised all-in with top set of Kings. The UTG player moaned but called immediately with his Q-J off,a made straight,and 10 hours of winnings went down the tube in one hand. I don't really see how the outcome could have been much different no matter how I played the hand; I certainly put one or both of them on draws and I didn't think the UTG player could possibly call with a draw, and even if he does have the straight I'm about 40% to fill up, so I thought it was the best play. Both of us were playing fairly tight games at that time, and his quick call of the small blinds raise meant to me a flush draw, so I shoved to get him out. But it's hard to get a guy to fold when he holds the nuts.
Comments?

Don't reraise all-in that deep without the nuts. You overraised the pot.

Obviously you shouldn't have reraised all in. With a heart coming on the board you might have been able to get away cheap.

Thanks for the responses, at least those that were sincere. The ones that were just nothing but an insult or made no sense you can keep to yourself. Obviously when I said it's hard to get a guy to fold the nuts it was said tongue in cheek. Ever heard of sarcasm?
I have concluded that I probably could have saved about half my stack because I don't think the guy with the nuts would have bet his entire stack at any point. But for the most part I think this was just a cooler-type situation.
Thanks for the thoughtful responses.

i like being dealt Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], i think it's your best chance to win the pot.

edit: i believe there are forums to discuss strategy, but i'm not positive.

Raise more pf with deeper stacks....and... Don't overbet push into a dry sidepot against a guy that called someone else's overbet push if you don't have the nuts.
