Thanks for the replies so far! Raising preflop would have only led to a starting pot 5 times bigger - it was one of those games.

I really wanted to pop it hard on the turn like everyone is suggesting but I just couldn't shake the feeling I was way behind (especially now that the board paired). Are we shoving to make Villain think I just hit the FH or are we just committed and want to make damn sure he pays to draw out?? Regardless, I definitely choked here - I was still emotionally attached to my stack (I'd bought in short to begin with).
