You will see two overs plus a heart quite a bit, so yeah, I think a turn raise is fine. However, I'd value bet that river after it getting checked through.

Granted, the donkbet is usually a weak hand, but with 4 people in the hand a flush is a real possiblity, maybe even a majority of the time. You ahve the SF draw--don't expose yourself to an expensive 3-bet or cap behind. If checked to again on the river--bet.

Bet the river.

You took a big risk by raising the turn. You could easily have been 3-bet by a better hand or gotten wiped out on the river. Now having apparently won your gamble you forget to pick up your prize.
