Betting the flop i agree with, i may have checked the turn and seen what the action did, see if you can sniff out who would have three fives or a made boat, or a new straight. When the river comes, with two callers and a raiser, i think you can throw this hand, if it is just you and him in the hand, i would call, but i dont like the value. I would say the raiser made a boat on the turn and slow played it, because raising a 9 high straight on the river with that board would just seem silly to me.

Honestly, I think you can check-fold the flop. Why pay 2 1/2 or more big bets to pray that you hang on for 1/2 of the pot? In a cash game, I might check-call down, but in a tournament I think I would wait for a better spot to commit my chips.

Classic example of when to check/fold with the nuts on the flop

i know you were in the blind and all but this is a great example of why its bad to play hands with 7s, 8s, and 9s in them.
