    being UTG, I either go for a limp/reraise or raise bigger at a 1-2 NL game...like $10

    you're lucky you didn't lose a big pot only going $3 preflop..can't believe the whole table folded.
    sites I play on:
    Pokerstars for tournaments
    Ultimatebet for Omaha
    SupremePoker.com for short handed NL ring games.

    Really tight table plus I was on a rush. I had pocket JavaScript and 4s the 2 hands before that and won a couple nice pots with both hands so I was afraid that a $5+ raise would have yielded no action.

    First of all, don't be scared of that flop, embrace it. With your EP raise AT is less likely to call you and thats the hand that you have to fear the most. You need to bet that flop more though. If someone caught 2 pair or trips on you, they will probably let you know. I'm making that a 3/4 to full pot size bet. Probably $5 would be good IMO. Most likely the other guy had a J or Q and called once on the cheepo to see if he could catch something nice on the turn. He may have had AJ or AQ. He looked for the T on the turn.

    It looks like you got what you could out of this hand for the most part.
