I like your play on all streets. Flop call is a thin one though.

if you're gonna call the flop, you have to raise the turn when you hit your hand

I like a turn raise because he might get overs (or even a better hand) to incorrectly fold to the represented "wait for the turn" play. It's a big pot, he's got to put in the extra bet to win. It also sets up a potential free showdown if he wants to go there.

You saw this part right?
Anyway...
Things play out differently if I hit my low top pair, bad kicker and it goes "BB bets, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP2 folds..."
Once BB fails to slow down on the turn and there are two callers in front of me, I have to think there's a good chance I have to improve to win. No?

Yes. Bad players make bad folds too. They don't have to do it very often for your raise to have value...
