Looks good to me. My standard flop bet is higher here but I guess it doesnt matter much. River check is ok, cause I cant imagine what hand which you beat is calling this bet.
This line with this hand on this kind flop wont give you much profit in the long run. Sometimes you will charge some draws sometimes you will be called down by 9 better kicker or weak overpair and some better players will blow you off by turn semibluffs... so I think I dont like raising preflop. It is matter of style though.

Best wishes

I love raising with Mid suited connectors... it helps drive out a lot of the overdraws you dont want to be up against like suited Aces and J-10

Depends. Do you want your opponent to see your hole-cards for free and know that you are raising with T9 suited? I know this isn't necessarily a loose raise 6-handed but still. If you don't want them to see your cards, you would have to bet here. I'm just throwing that out there.

Do this from the CO and make the flop bet $50, you'll take down alot more flops.
