Been at the table for about 3 orbits

Raised a lot of hands due to a combo of a run of good cards and me loving the button so much.

I was a hell of a lot confused on what to do on the turn. The ace pops up and i dont know what the hell to do. River is obv, but what the hell do i do on the turn?

I find the min raises at low limits are a huge sign of strength. So, I'd say fold the turn. I would call and hope to hit trips or 2 pair, but I'm a donk.

No. You have top pair, weak kicker on a monotone flop with a crappy draw. Pretty much any turn card is a scare card and you could already be drawing dead.

I think it's common of a lot of learning players to misplay hands like this and i used to and still am guilty of it myself.

Not all top pairs are created equal, here you have a weak top pair on a 9 high suited bored against 4 players (your 6D doesn't count for anything at all). Just fold, like Snamuh said the turn is probably gonna suck so just give up now.

Calling the turn raise is really bad.

you could if it were blind v. blind
you could if it was heads up and you had position, with an ok read that villain's not continuing even if he has a naked Ad.

here, you're raising an EP lead on a mono flop, with two others left to act, with a combo draw that's actually got some really crappy reverse implied odds. it's just spew.
