Final Pot: $11.60

I called preflop because JT isn't such a bad hand in a multiway and i figured there'd be 4 of us in, plus i'm likely to stack one of these soft players if it goes my way.

I called the flop bet because the pot odds weren't bad and the implied odds were pretty good.

Ok so i hit my straight, no flush draw, im good here. I knew one of them would bet because the turn wasnt a scare for them so i let them do that and then get a raise in. Maybe the raise was too big.

Rest of it is obvious.

What do you think?

I'd complete the sb for the reasons you listed, but I do not like calling a raise in this position because it's difficult to play draws OOP in a raised pot. Also, you don't close the action and people behind you can do funky things, like they did in this hand.

I think I fold pre-flop. I like the rest of the hand though.

MP doesn't have anything big with the min-raise pre-flop and min-bet on flop. Shucks, even if MP shoves over the raise, you can call - you might be drawing to 14 outs.

Fold preflop, you're not closing the action, you have a marginal hand, and you're out of position on the remaining streets
