Interesting hand - opinions?
 
4-handed small stakes home game, 25-50 cent blinds, stacks range from $10-40, we've been playing for awhile and decided before the hand was dealt that this would be the last hand of the night. All players involved generally play solid games (although I'm notorious for being loose preflop).

I'm in the big blind. UTG raises to $2.50, which is slightly above the usual $2 bet. Second player calls. Small blind folds, I call on the big blind with K-J of hearts. Pot is $7.75.

Flop comes Ah-Ts-8h, giving me the nut flush draw and a gutshot straight draw. I check, UTG goes all-in for his remaining $5. Second player (who has my remaining $20 stack covered) re-raises to $10, making the pot about $23. I re-raise all-in, and he calls the additional $10.

UTG shows As-Tc for top two pair, second player shows Ac-Js, and my Kh-Jh wins when the turn comes an offsuit Queen and the river is a blank.

I got the usual post-mortem about what terrible plays I make as I collected the chips. Opinions?

Fine. You have very little FE against the second player, but don't really need any as if we view it as an effective $20 bet, calling is not terrible.

its fine, your equity of a flush draw+gutter is good enough to play as you did.
