elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
I wouldnt have checked the turn. Obviously Button has an overpair and he is very aggro. So, I would bet and if MP3 raises and Button reraises then this is an easy fold.

#1 was your read right? If you made a read, trusted your read, and threw your hand away. Then you made the best decision.

If your read was wrong, and instead it was two loonies throwing chips at eachother I still think you made a good fold. because you can't put either of them on hands, and you you have 2 outs to beat a set, and 6 outs to beat two pair. Borderline call at best.

You got your money in when you were ahead, and got out when you were behind. Can't play it any better.
The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

With 4 callers, a diamond on the turn is the end of this hand for you. You might already be beat with a flush, and on the flop have an outside chance of pulling out a full house. Your odds of winning this hand on the river are almost zero with that turn card.

This is a situation where you may be chasing a decent pot, but any diamond card beats your hand, and the likelihood of someone have at least one diamond is very, very good. You are also playing limit poker, so the odds of representing the Ace and bluffing out all callers is not very good

I would check-raise the flop in an attempt to get heads-up with the button. As played, I'd bet the turn and probably fold to a raise.
