I kind of got lost here. I felt that I should have either 3-bet the turn or bet the river (or checkraised the river, not that it would have worked). Either way I'm sure I missed a bet somewhere. Where should I have gotten it in?

That's a pretty non-threatening looking turn card. I'd 3-bet here unless my read on the button is pretty passive. Q9 is a possibility, but so are QJ, AQ, or even JT or KJ trying to steal the pot from AK. If button caps it, I'm check-calling the river.

I like the turn raise too. You are probably ahead, but you could always be out-drawn on the river. If the button reraises, you might be in deep, but either a call or a fold are good for you.

Make the turn 3...that 9 of diamonds is an ugly card though isnt it =[
