Baby straight turns into great Clarkmeister opportunity

Main villian was SLAP with I think around 25/12/1.5 over 40 hands at the time.

Preflop: Hero is SB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $0.5.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 (poster) checks, CO calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (6 SB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB 3-bets</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, BB calls.

I check here hoping someone will bet late in this large field and I can raise to eliminate opponents. BB ruins that, but with a 6 player field I feel my equity is high enough to valuebet even though the turn could devalue my hand. Opinions? BB reraises so I get my hand protection anyway, thanks guy!

Turn: (9 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

Why would BB reraise the flop if he had a flushdraw or 7 and knock out the field? He could have 87 or 73 or A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], but there are more 2 pair and set hands that he could have been protecting on flop. So, I bet.

River: (11 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero Bets

Bet goot? This card would have scared me in another life, but I beat any set or 2 pair except one with a 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], and he just might fold that or a higher straight (it could happen [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ).
