Playing $2/$3 live NLH, $100 max buy in. The game has been going fairly stardard, no tricky players, no crazy hands, a little on the dull side. My opponent in this hand isn't the best with preflop hand selection, but hasn't shown to be crazy or anything. My image is, I would say, average.
I'm in early MP w KQ suited (suites are irrelivent) and open limp which isn't unusual in this game. CO-2 makes it $14 to go, standard. BB calls, and I call. So three players to the flop.
JT7 rainbow. BB checks and I don't feel the original raiser has any of this so I bet $25 in hopes of taking it down there. Preflop raiser folds, and the BB after thinking for a bit goes all in for $79 total. $148 in the pot and I have to call $54 more. 2.74:1 to see the next two cards. Calling would still leave me with my original $100 buy in. After much deliberation I decided to fold but I feel now like I was getting too good a price, or perhaps the exact right price to call. Thoughts?

I call here, or checkraise all in on the flop, or fold preflop.

Game sounds a bit retarded to me.
Getting 2.74:1 and having 8 outs to the mortal nuts and maybe a clean Q or K, this is an autocall for me.

Does anyone else not like the flop bet?

I don't like it deep, but I think it's sorta the make-up of blinds and max buy in at this game that would make this sorta weird bet ok.

Yeah. I lead with draws from time to time to mix things up a bit, but I think we get called or reraised way too often on this board.
