Ok people,

After playing in a live tourney, they opened up a frieldly little cash game .24-.50 blinds NL.

everyone got in for $20 so I came in for $30. Was very loose game, sometimes played like a .50-1.00 game.

After getting up like $7 the following hand began,,,(FULL RING)

players one leads out for $2.50 and is called by one player. I look down at 78cc and think I might gamble with type of hand in a cash game.

Player after me reraises $5 more dollars.
Original player calls
2nd caller calls again
alreadt $25 in pot and its $5 more dollars to me. Now, I debated myself here, but thought about my odds and called here. Im not sure its actually the right call though considering the amount of money were playing for.

so pot is now $30
flop

QC 9C 10H

player one leads out for $10
player 2 folds
and im not looking at open ended with flush draw,,,about 15 outs.
I know im slightly favored to win this hand verus most hands. I still have to worry about last player who initially reraised $5.
I decide to push my remaining money into the pot, which was $28, about 18 more then the $10 raise

the initial reraiser folds and the 1st raiser calls my all in

Im putting on big pair or set, but still favored if get called.
The player shows 99 for a set.
the turn is a 10 filling the boat and the river is a meaningless 2h.

any thoughts on the matter on this hand?
I dont consider myself a cash player, but I think it was the correct choice, I just want to know if people think it was played correctly.

Call instead of raising. If he wants to put his money in this hand why rush it? Wait for when you hit the draw so that your profit margin is higher.

I think it was the right play. With that flop, an all-in move might take the pot down right there, and if not, you had enough outs to justify the risk. The villan would have probably re-raised the flop bet anyway, so you were pretty much stuck for the remainder of your chips at that point. As lucky as you run on draws, why not?
