What do you guys think of the turn bet specifically?
Results:
MP3 shows JJ making a set
SB shows AA making the nut-flush
After this hand, I had to quit my session because its just unreal how often I catch two pair or better and get screwed because of it. When I lay down my bigger hands, (mostly overpairs...I've added this to my game) it always feels. But w/e, poker really really sucks right now...uber frustrated... I need to go pick on some small children because I feel so belittled right now. ego=crushed

after MP3 reraises all in on flop i jam to push out the multitude of draws. didn't look at results but judging from your complaint i'm guessing you were up against a set (which is kind of a cooler imo) or got sucked out on on the turn.. i prob check/fold turn after just calling flop (except i don't think i'd ever ever just call flop).
(after looking at results) take note that MP1 minraises strength into field and SB is a station, chalk it up to variance and move on i think. no doubt frustrating as fk.

You are getting ridiculous odds to call here preflop so I don't mind it too much. On the flop, it's a very drawish board, so I'm betting full pot ($3) and shoving over any kind of raise. We want to get it in now while we have an edge over those straight and flush draws. If someone has a set (5 total combinations possible with your blockers), gg them. If they have a draw or an overpair and hit the card they need to beat you as you miss your 4-outer to the nuts, bad luck you, but you got your money in good. The only draw that you're a dog to is K:s:Q:s:... you even have better equity than K:s:9:s:.
So yeah, get it on the flop, especially multi-way, and when you lose, say "Oh well, bad luck. I played good."

Just ride the wave man.
As played just get it in on the flop. Top two in a raised pot=get yo monies in right quick.
