NWI NL 1/2
Friday afternoon game. 3 regs. Mostly a full table. The other guys I don't really know (thank God). Game is tight and passive. Hero has been there an hour and has $175 after buying in for $200. Hero has whiffed on several flops. Raises are between 8 and 15. Villain has $300. He's a 25 yo BG wearing shades and a hoodie. His VPIP is about 50. His thing is to bet when checked to. I've seen him twice before and my impression was that he's pretty aggro.
UTG+1 is a 50 yo truck driver and tournament player. He's a good guy. He's been there all night and has $600. He likes to see flops. SB is unknown to Hero. 35 yo WG. He got stacked once and now has 100 or so.
Hero is UTG with K

Hero makes it 12. I either raise 12 or 15 when I open a pot and my goal is not to make my raises reflective of what hand I have. I avoid 8 or 10.
UTG+1 calls.
It folds to SB who calls and BB who calls.
Pot $48

Hero has a boat and the third nuts at this point. Hero wants to build a pot and bets $30.
All three players call. Pot $168
Turn 5
SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks...bad decision? My goal was to get it all in here thinking that the other 3 guys had smaller pairs. Was this bad thinking? I'm not a snowflake. Critique me at will.

SB checks, BB bets $50
Hero shoves.
Is my play correct here? Thanks for the criticism and input in advance.
