How would you play?

Edit: I didn't post what was going through my mind in this hand before, but I'll do it now.

99... great hand. MP was a guy that was playing tight and seemed to be decent. I called because I had position and I didn't want to play a very big pot pre-flop. I could've 3bet, but calling is important to balance.

Good flop for me. I'm betting because I have two opponents and because my hand may be the best. Standard here. Didn't go very big because it's a relatively dry flop.

Turn is an ace and I thought about a throwing-in second barrel. But I prefered to check-behind because he seemed a good player and could be trapping with an ace in is hand, inducing me to bet. I checked here to avoid being check-raise and be put in a spot where I'll have to fold.

River is a great card and it's value time. He bets the pot and I thought it could be a bluff or a value hand, once the board allows a lot of hands he wants to get value from, like 2 pair, top pair. I'm never folding here. So I made him put the rest of his chips in the middle.

I prefer a 3bet preflop, but calling for setvalue is fine as well. BTN and SB look weak. That means you have a good chance to play a multiway pot.
As played I like to bet the flop, because there aren't a lot of cards that improve my hand plus you block some draws that could call you.
If you want to barrel again the A is probably the best card to do it on. Other than a 9 of course. There are still draws out there that could call, maybe a J folds to an A. I am not sure on that.
I would jam river as well. It is great that he overbets the river, because it is almost never a bluff. I could see him do it with two pair as well and I doubt the he would fold these to you shove. JJ, AA are very unlikely. QT and T7 you lose to. A8, AJ, 98, J9, A2, J8, 22, 88 are all reasonable. You beat all these hands.

I prefer calling preflop. Jam river seems ok.

Note: Better give your thought process first.

I prefer 3bet pre flop, 6max and mp, lot of small pair any broadways, suited hands raise mp, 78s-QJs. But post flop i raise about 0.14.

You will only benefit from this. It is more profittable for you to receive correctional feed back on your thought process.

I would definitely just call here. I think 3betting is quite crazy.
The hand seems to be quite standard.
