So i realise that i probably made a number of errors in this hand, i know that shoving isn't a great play on the turn, as the hands i'm trying to extract value from.. think AQ AJ are drawing dead, A9 will most likely call here aswell, so my thinking is even i did lead out on the turn a little over half pot how then can i get away from a re-shove? i suppose this a golden situation for people to set mine 5x UTG opening raise in a multiway pot, so difficult to put people on sets, can we get away here ever? opinions please..

Villain is 24:18 btw

Betting 1/2 on the turn is fine. Awkward stacks on just about anything you do sizing wise because it's MW.

You're not folding top 2 at $4nl.

I'm not quite sure why you're betting so big? Maybe it was just the dynamic of the table and to be expected, but the only properly sized bet I saw was your flop bet. Otherwise, no you're never getting away from this, just a cooler. Even if you bet normal 3x, 3/4, etc I imagine you're never getting away from this with the board as draw heavy as it is.
