Did i play my hand correct or should i have folded? What did our villain have and who won?
MP2 played a lot of hands, maybe loose/aggressive and he thought he was on a roll after taking a few pots by hitting a runner runner.

edit: i see now that i call on the flop after he reraised me and then i lead out on the turn, i think that is not good?

I think the converter messed something up. Where did the Button go between the flop:

and the turn:

?

I ask this because my analysis might change depending on when the button folds.

When did he fold?
After MP2's raise on the flop? After MP2's raise on the turn?

the flop call/ turn bet is a good line against player who will raise with just overcards(or any other draw), but may check behind on the turn for a free card.
When your opponent raises the turn, it looks a lot like a higher pocket pair than yours. There are a few people who will raise here with just a hand like AK, especially AK, but often the turn raise is an overpair. It is unlikely he has a nine because of his 3 bet preflop. At higher limits (10/20 or so) you may actually see him showdown a smaller pair than nines. As games get more agressive people open up their raising standards, and it can then be profitable to 3-bet to isolate with a very wide range, since you have position.
On the river you are almost always beaten, but you need to check/call because the pot is so big (you will win often enough to make it profitable)

Usually when a player dissapears (button) on bisonbison's converter, that player goes all in. The way to prevent this disappearence is to click "show side pot details." But, you say he folded on the turn, so I guess that isn't the problem this time.
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.
