A little too weak of a hand to be limping here; we can pull a little positional bet, though for like $2. We've got a pretty tight image so far and it will work often enough for it to be profitable.

Good check behind; he's not calling with anything we have beat. We can be pretty sure he's got JT+, 9T or maybe an 8 here most of the time with his line.

Another good check behind. A draw isn't calling us, and if he's got KQ or 9x all we're doing is spewing chips. Again, nothing calls us here that doesn't have us beat.

I'd note how passively he played that huge draw. Labeled "calling station".

Again a little weak here with the limp. Don't mind it that much, though, as we've got Mr. Calling station in the hand again, and if we hit the flop hard we can rake in a nice pot with any luck.
I prefer getting involved with these types of multiway hands vs weaker players because it gives me that little added edge of being able to outplay them postflop on top of the fact that I have the possibility of hitting a good flop. A guy like ppierce isn't folding to us if he's hit any part of a flop.

Good-sized bet. Note how much respect everyone is giving you. This is one of those great spots that TAGs (or even strong LAGs) can make a lot of money with squeezes.
Players generally pin TAGs on a big pair or AK when they make bets this big PF, so switching it up and making a steal with JTs or 77 works wonders.
