no legit reads here but the result was a nice pot. still, looking back im questioning my play on this since im normally TAG/ABC. i wanted to mix up my normal lines and use position. is my logic good in this hand?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP ($32.15)
Hero ($38.50)
SB ($58.05)
BB ($16.25)
UTG ($4.60)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 7, 9.
UTG calls $0.25, 1 fold, Hero raises to $1 (setting up for a c-bet or to play a draw in position), SB calls $0.90, BB calls $0.75, UTG calls $0.75.

Flop: ($4) A, 2, 6 (4 players)
SB checks, BB bets $0.5, UTG calls $0.50, Hero raises to $3.3 (trying to rep ace and fold weak hands/other draws, or if called set up a free card - bad play with 3 opps since i have pot odds to call???), SB raises to $6.1, BB calls $5.60, UTG folds (nice, thanks for the min-raise), Hero calls $2.80

Turn: ($22.80) T (3 players)
SB bets $6.75, BB folds, Hero calls $6.75 (shoulda raised, right? he likely has 2pair/set or pair/redraw here but is it worth the risk to be sure and stack him on the river?)

River: ($36.30) 3 (2 players)
SB bets $44.2 (All-In), Hero calls $24.65 (wow that makes it easy...)

Final Pot: $105.15
results in white...
Hero has 7d 9d (flush, ace high).
SB has 8h As (one pair, aces).
Outcome: Hero wins $85.60. SB wins $19.55.

Success is how high you bounce after hitting bottom.

Push the turn. He likes his hand. Get his money in there.

haha, i loved the SB moves. either hes the biggest moron ive met at $25, or thought he was pushing me off top pair.

but yea, i think my main mistake was not raising/pushing the turn

He likes it, but he might not get stacked. He bet 1/3 pot.

I still raise it, but I don't push it and the reason I'm raising is because of scare cards on the river. Like another diamond or a paired board.

Hands like these are exactly the reason why LAG play doesn't work at 25NL. Glad it worked out for you this time, but just stick to ABC poker for the most part.
