Default You flop trips in the BB .. now what?

I'm not quite sure what I was hoping he had, something like 2 overs or a mid PP... Just wondering how people would play this differently. Am I overvaluing trips in this situation?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) converter

UTG (t1450)
UTG+1 (t1420)
MP1 (t1370)
MP2 (t1440)
MP3 (t1500)
CO (t1930)
Button (t1470)
SB (t1420)
BB (t1500)

Preflop:HERO IS IN BB with 92o
UTG calls t20, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls t20, MP3 calls t20, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t100) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, MP2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 bets t60</font>, SB folds, BB calls t60, UTG folds, MP2 folds.

Turn: (t220) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 bets t120</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to t240</font>, MP3 calls t120.

River: (t700) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t220</font>, MP3 calls t220.

Final Pot: t1140

With UTG and MP2 still to act behind you, I might have raised on the flop. A possible four-way to the turn, might include a straight chaser. Having gotten HU, I think the turn &amp; river went very well. Looks like you played for full value. Putting him in on the turn or hitting the river hard likely would have saw him folding.

What is your kicker?

edit: Ouch, a 2. That makes this hand a bit nastier to play.

I don't particularly mind the way you played it though and since he just called on the turn you have to valuebet the river.
