Default KTs: TPNK on a raised pot

2nd or 3rd hand of a 3$/45 trny

I know my limp is somewhat questionable, but I try to exploit weak players in the first levels.
I'm pushing turn because I think I'm best here (JJ+ would have raised me probably) and there are many cards that might make me sick on river if I only bet 1/2 pot.

standard?

I dont think this is standard, I hate limping and then calling a raise with K10s outta position. Just fold preflop and save urself the trouble.

I don't mind this. He's getting a fine price to see a flop with two cards that can make a lot of disguised monster hands.

I don't mind it either, but just wondering did you consider what they were calling you with on a pretty dry board. Would it totally be out of the realm of possibility that the BB has A3 (When the raise gets back to him there's 230 in the pot (I believe) so he's almost getting 4-1 which opens his range). I was about to type something else about betting but looking at the hands you can only bet all in (anything else and you are pot committed). I guess I'm just wondering if you considered the previous about what they are holding (because A3 doesn't reraise you on that flop).

One of the things that makes them "weak" is limping with modest hands.
