I wouldn't have donked the turn, he looks like he's got a 6 or an overpair on the flop. If he has a 6 you are behind and want a cheap showdown. Could he have called with 10s or JJ preflop or would he 3bet these? I think the best line after the flop is to get a showdown with your' 2 pair and hope for the best, I would fold the turn, can't see him doing that without trips or a boat. Depends a lot on the villain of course, i have seen some fish going crazy with like Q9 on these boards.

On the flop it would be very tough to throw this hand away. I like the bet and the call.

On the turn you should check. He knows you dont have a 6 and thinks you could have a 9 or PP. I would expect him to bet the A or if he checks behind then you get closer to a cheaper showdown with a mid strenght hand. If/when villan bets turn (I would say he would bet $1.50-2.50) then you either go all in or you fold. Note how aggressive this villan is. I would almost guarantee that he is going to be the A. This line would cost you less if you realy think he has the 6 and gives you the option to put the pressure on him by raising all in (note if you are just going to call his all in on the river you might as well push on the turn with 2 pair on this board IMO)

I would tend to go towards All in. If you raise all in and he calls then you are only afraid of any 6 or AA/99. Also, if villan is a nit (which does not appear that he is) he could fold here with a 6 putting you on AA or 99. More than likely he will call you with a strong A allowing you to maximize your equity with your higher 2 pair.
