Default Too aggressive?

Unibet Poker 2/4 € hold'em (9-handed) Game is loose-aggressive.

Preflop: <font color="red">DonHansen </font> is SB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG folds , UTG+1 &amp; 2 calls, 1 player folds, next player calls, semi-button and button folds, <font color="red">DonHansen </font>calls, BB checks.

Flop: 10[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]<font color="blue"> (5 players) </font>
Don Hansen <font color="red"> </font> checks, BB bet (2), player 3+4 call (2 each), 1 player fold , <font color="red">DonHansen </font> raise (4), it's called around (2 each).

Turn: 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]<font color="blue"> (4 players)</font>
DonHansen <font color="red"> </font> bet (4), BB call (4), BB+1 (4) call, button raise (8), <font color="red"> DonHansen </font> re-raise (8), BB call (8), semi-button fold, button call (4).

River: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue"> (3 players) </font>
<font color="red">DonHansen </font> bet (4), big blind calls and show 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (a pair of Qs), button calls and show 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (two pair, Ts and 8s).

Now for the question: On the turn, was it a mistake to re-raise? I feel I was lucky to keep two of the three remaining players in the pot after my re-raise considering the rag they played. Would a more correct play be to call the buttons raise on the turn and go for a check-raise on the river?

You know the feeling, when the river drains out to just a single bet, is there any way one could have squeezed more juice out?

I would lead the flop since you're not sure someone will bet after you check. The reraise on the turn is not too aggressive. They'll show you two pair a lot more than they'll show you a straight or a larger set.

The turn 3-bet is good.

Bet the flop.

No. Turn and river are fine. You want to get your bets in on the turn, so anyone with draws, will still call you.

Just bet out on the flop though. Having it checked through would be a disaster. Also people will raise with all sorts of hands on the flop, so you might even get to 3-bet (depending on how many players are still in the hand, you may just want to call araise and wait for the turn).
