Default coldcalling with JTs on the button

stars 3.30 rebuy at the end of the third hour, still some way before the bubble

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1200 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG (t35200)
UTG+1 (t11919)
MP1 (t61379)
MP2 (t10142)
MP3 (t51750)
CO (t9615)
Hero (t74714)
SB (t37320)
BB (t33212)

Preflop: Hero is Button with T, J.
2 folds[/i], MP1 calls t1200, 1 fold, MP3 raises to t3600, 1 fold, Hero calls t3600, 2 folds, MP1 folds.

The limper is incredibly bad, min betting all the way with ace high hoping someone will fold etc. He limps a lot, almost never raises (25/2.5).
Raiser is very active (26/14) and has recently gone up from 10k by getting insanely lucky (winning shove with a5o against ak, flopping 2 straights with SC). Raiser is very good and probably well aware of how bad the limper is thus trying to isolate here. I call expecting that Villain's Hand is possibly quite weak here and that I have a good chance of taking the hand away from him at some point, as well as having a very well disguised hand myself that can bet a lot of flops that it doesnt hit.
I've been pretty active myself (20/10), restealing from SB against villain a few orbits past.

Flop: (t9400) 4, 8, 8 [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font>
MP3 checks, Hero bets t5000

Am I running into traps here a lot or is a thinking villain well aware that my range should be tigher than his and so he's c/fing all non pairs?
