Interesting Hand

I had an interesting hand last night in the late stages of Kat's tournament. Here's the hand history.

5,505 in the pot and it costs me 1,455 to call with Ah8c. 4 to 1 on my money and Don's aggression and range of hands is high so I call.
surflexus calls 1,455
*** FLOP *** [Qc Jc Ts]
surflexus has 15 seconds left to act
I flop a double gut shot straight draw so I think I have 8 outs to a certain win and a small chance that an ace still gives me a better hand as well so 8 outs, maybe 11. I'm still sitting at almost 10,000 even if it goes to the river with Don all in and I lose.
Astin: but then I wouldn't have won
surflexus bets 6,960
I fire out a good pot size bet here to let Don know I have a hand. It doesn't work and he comes over the top for the rest of his chips.
Astin: some friend you'd have been then
xkm1245: now you're catching on
MiamiDon raises to 24,909, and is all in
I'm getting 2 to 1 on my money with 38,829 in the pot and I have somewhere between what I'm figuring to be around a 30-35% chance of winning so it's a borderline call but it's a chance to eliminate an opponent and it doesn't break me so I go ahead and call.
surflexus calls 17,949
MiamiDon shows [Ac 7c]
surflexus shows [Ah 8c]

Don made a comment that this was a horrible play. Looking over the price I was getting pre-flop, I think I'm justified to call there. Once the flop hits and I have a lot of outs to the majority of the hands in the range I have him on, I bet out strong. This is maybe where I made a semi-bad play but once this bet was made I have odds to call his all in. It was a tough hand for Don but I think my play is OK here. What do you think?
