I'd like a comment on my flop raise. I wanted to get rid of any overcards like AQs AKs and AKoff. But I kind a think the raise might be over aggressive.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 max, 8 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 9, 9.
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, Hero raises, 1 fold, CO 3-bets, 3 folds, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (11.50 SB) T, 3, 7 (3 players)
UTG+1 bets, Hero raises, CO 3-bets, UTG+1 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (10.25 BB) 9 (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero checks, CO bets, UTG+1 calls, Hero raises, CO calls, UTG+1 calls.

River: (16.25 BB) 6 (3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero checks, CO checks.

Final Pot: 16.25 BB

Results in white below:
UTG+1 has 6c Kc (one pair, sixes).
Hero has 9h 9c (three of a kind, nines).
CO has As Ac (one pair, aces).
Outcome: Hero wins 16.25 BB.

I'm using Bisons handconverter here... What am I doing wrong..?

change color:# to color=#

I do this in a text editor using search and replace. Don't just replace : with = because it will mess other stuff up.

You need to change the color: into color=

Why the river check? I woulda bet out the turn and bet out the river. But if you do checkraise the turn you gotta bet the river there (and this is coming from the Mr. river wuss).

It's a big pot, but I'm inclined to dump this one on the flop. With the pre-flop aggressor yet to act, you're stuck in a tough spot. However, I think raising is the next best play. Nice 2-outer fish!

The river play is pretty bad.

luck monger, preflop is fine, but I fold this on the flop any day. If they didn't have AA, a T-x had me convinced with the 3 bet.

I think the raise is just fine, for the reasons you stated. Consider folding to the 3-bet though; 19.5:1 might be good enough w/ implied odds to hit your 2-outer, but you have to remember to discount for the times you make your set and lose to the flush. (Or set-over-set, even)
