on the flop his range includes sets, two pair, and straight draws. any set bets turn, so check behind eliminates sets, unless he has 88 and wants a showdown fearing you have 99 - since from villain's perspective this is a reasonable holding for you.

you are almost always ahead on river and villain likely checks behind. so, bet the biggest amount 89, jt, t7, or 76 makes crying call with. 500 seems like it will get a call, but the exact amount depends on feel, of course.

i personally don't like the flop min raise here since you are unlikely to have the best hand and sb isn't deep enough that you can fold him out often enough to be profitable. i think you got lucky that button called, thereby causing sb to freak out like you and fold.

this hand seems surprisingly straightforward, so i'm not sure if this is a level.
