MP2 certainly did help you out during this hand.
On the river, I would have been worried that one of the cold-callers behind me had a nine (and I'd have been worried someone had an eight on the turn). But your river raise did gain 4.25 BBs for you, and you do have a lot of potential outs on the turn if you're not currently ahead (though possibly not as many as it appears).
Except for 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and maybe 99, I'm not sure what your river raise represents, but it does put your remaining opponents in the uncomfortable spot of possibly having to invest 4 BBs just to salvage their 1/4 or 1/3 of 17 BBs.
