Continue to bet?
 
No reads.

Should i of continued to bet on the turn when i had three callers to my flop bet?

And was it correct to check-call the turn and river?

I'd keep betting. The 2 is a blank and calls on that flop don't mean that someone has a J.

Without any reads I would bet the turn. If everybody checks to MP he might bet with any two to try to steal the pot. You'll have to put that 1 bet in anyway. Worse yet, he might check and you've given everybody a free card that might beat you. If you bet and get raised then it's an easy fold and you've still invested only 1 big bet.

Yes.

Betting is much better than check/calling. If nobody has a jack, then you are losing a lot of value if the turn gets checked through (and since nobody raised the flop, there is a good chance, that this is the case). You would also hate giving a free card to someone who peeled the flop with overcards.

Finally if you get raised on the turn, you can save a bet by folding.

Keep betting. Only 1 card higher than 9 on the board, and it isnt an ace or a king. I'd bet this all the way.
