I think you played it fine. With two opponents on the turn you could afford to bet the pot, but I don't think it's necessary and it's likely you'd have been called anyways.

I think you'd be missing a lot of value by shoving the turn.
2/3pot to full pot bet seems best and is still be giving bad value to a flush draw, plus you won't scare away the dude calling down with QTo.

At a $3.40 you aren't missing value by shoving the turn. Opponents don't know how to bet (LOL at T100 bet on river) they only know how to call - and call they will with any pairs or any draws. The only hands you're folding are bottom pair and sometimes 2nd pair.
