That might be the single worst played hand in the history of poker. She made about 5 mistakes in one hand.
1. I don't even like the call out of the SB, but ok
2. Check raising out of position with a draw into 3 other players without drawing to the nuts when there are 2 of suit on the board
3. Leading again on the turn out of position when a card that hits draws comes off.
4. CALLING a raise on the turn with nothing but a crappy draw?
5. Making a $5 bet into a what, $40k pot?
Seriously this girl has zero clue what she's doing. She's obviously some kind of luckbox to have anything.

of course you're going to complete this out of the SB. Chk/raising this hand, is
the best way to play this hand. You're often going to take it down right there. If you don't, a simple turn bet should get you there. Betting the turn is an obvious continuation of the semi-bluff and gets one of two better hands to fold (the one that didn't turn the nuts). Calling the turn raise is obviously a mistake. She might be thinking - "ok, he has a set. I still have my 8 outs for a straight, 4 of which can be chk/raised, and 11 flush cards can be bluffed." She then misplays the river with a bet that is just too small to be believed. 5 times out of 6, her play in this hand makes it so that no one ever sees the river card. Good play followed by bad turn card, and bad play. Good player. Very attractive. You all suck.

Playing crappy drawing hands from worst position is definitely the way to big bux.
