Looks good. He's overlimping preflop with mostly raggy suited stuff (makes lots of 2prs/ occasional straight) and 55. I think most 30/20s raise 77+ so that's the only set to worry about. If he's getting crazy with a draw that's his problem since he's not winning this without a showdown 90% of the time, just make a note and move on.

I would consider peeling getting 12:1 on the turn but T9 makes sense as does any Jx 2pair or 6c9c, to go with the rest of the raggy 2prs.

These kind of situations make me hate poker sometimes. You showed a lot of strength on the flop yet this guy is still raising the turn. Although he is raising the turn with 2 people committed, which is a great sign of strength, this is still a positional raise coming from an aggressive player which is not as powerful of a line as checkraising the turn with 2 committed. Is this guy retarded/aggressive enough to have Jc9c,JTo,QJo on the turn? I must admit though, his play is very consistent with T9s,J8s, or 55. Youre getting almost 13-1 to see the river, the turn play is close IMO against this foe. I think I would call the turn against this guy, but I would definitely fold on that river card if he bets. I dont think folding the turn is wrong though, I think its close, its too bad we didnt know more about the nature of our opponent.
