Reraise the turn (unless you can't in which I really see no other way to play this).

Getting 6:1 as worst possible odds if they end up capping the flop, I think the flop call is perfect. Villains are on big pairs just about always so you are close to having 10 clean outs.
Worst case scenario you are up against A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and 99 in which case you have 6 outs, but still have odds to see the turn for 4 bets.

I'd reraise the turn, the rest looks good.

SB's all-in is only $.25 more than your raise so it counts as a call, not a 3bet. This is pretty standard and has nothing to do with the software.
