Default Big blind check to flop: top pair, poor kicker

Continuing my theme of marginal hands. Am I too aggressive with this hand that could so easily be dominated?

No reads on anyone as I've only just moved up to this level (and will be moving back down soon, I think, to .1/.2.)

Prima Poker skin
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $0.25/$0.5
8 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, Hero checks.

Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6SB, 6 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls.

Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (5.5BB, 5 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, CO calls, SB calls.

River: T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (9.5BB, 4 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, 2 folds.

Results:
Final pot: 11.5BB

*grunch*

I think that you played it fine for the most part. If nobody raises you, I think that you have to keep betting with top pair. I probably would've check/called the river because of the flush possibility though.

With no read, I am check/calling the river getting 10.5-1 if UTG+1 bets. If UTG+1 bets and SB check-raises, then I am gone. The flush and trips possibilities make betting a little too aggressive IMO.

Too weak, bet/call if it 2 back to you let it go.
