I had been playing tightly up until that moment, even for a shorthanded table. I usually fold 22-44 here, if there is already a limper in the hand and I'm not sure if he is capable of folding to a raise and/or if villain in the button is capable of folding as well, or if they are sticky enough to pay me off if I hit a set.
This time, I was bored, most players had been limping a lot, so I decided to take a shot with 33.

I don't like slowplaying bottom set in a unraised pot pre, OOP, and with that board, so I bet here.
When villain raised me that big, I thought he could have 66, 77 (with a heart ?), maybe 88-TT?, 54s and maybe low AXs?
So my question here is putting the money in OTF, risking to be behind of 66 and 88 or simply call here, giving villain a chance to outdraw me/realise his equity?
Apart from that, if villain had some kind of draw that he didn't hit OTT, the turn card could kill the action, so I decide to put the money in OTF, even knowing I could be behind 66...
Too loose?
