Moved up to 5NL, this hand has been grinding through my mind the past few days.
Any mistakes in my train of thought or betsizing?

PokerStars, Hold'em No Limit - $0.02/$0.05 - 6 players
Replay this hand on Pokeit

Player4 (UTG): $5.36 (107 bb)
Player5 (MP): $5.26 (105 bb)
Player6 (CO): $6.45 (129 bb)
Player1 (BU): $9.27 (185 bb)
Hero (SB): $8.30 (166 bb)
Player3 (BB): $5.00 (100 bb)

PF: as we're both deep I decided vs 3b this is a call with a hand that can hit a flop nice and the implied odds.
Pre-Flop: ($0.07) Hero (Hero) is SB with 8♣ 9♣
3 players fold, Player1 (BU) raises to $0.12, Hero (SB) calls $0.10, Player3 (BB) calls $0.07

On the flop I hit the nuts, as PF caller I decide to XR this board (expecting a decent amount of Cb on this wet board.)
With the bet/call from V on the Flop I narrow his range to JJ+, A♠J♠+
Flop: ($0.36) 7♠ 5♣ 6♠ (3 players)
Hero (SB) checks, Player3 (BB) checks, Player1 (BU) bets $0.18, Hero (SB) raises to $0.57, Player3 (BB) folds, Player1 (BU) calls $0.39

TURN: XR would turn my hand into a bluff which I don't like. I doubt if I should bet here but I decide to XC here to not scare away made TPTK hands and give way for V to bluff.
Turn: ($1.50) Q♠ (2 players)
Hero (SB) checks, Player1 (BU) bets $0.72, Hero (SB) calls $0.72

On the river I decide to put in a blockbet which in hindsight seems stupid because it doesn't align with my previous actions.
With the Jam from V my reasoning is he either has a SET with a or he has a flush. Should I have called as played considering we're both deep?
I don't think people jam enough with the FD on the board on 5NL to call.
River: ($2.94) A♥ (2 players)
Hero (SB) bets $1.06, Player1 (BU) raises to $7.86 (all-in), Hero (SB) folds

Total pot: $5.06 (Rake: $0.21)
Player1 (BU) wins $4.85

I would check/call the river. Not sure why you lead the river with the straight after checking the turn.
The rest of the hand seems pretty standard.

Cheers,

Preflop - due to rake its just fold. Most problematic suited connector as you are losing stack against AK and K9 on QJT.
Flop - wp
Turn - small bet >> check/call. You have many flushes in your range as you shouldnt have offsuit broadways there. Then on river again small bet. would be ok
River - if you check/called turn then there is no reason to bet river. Check and decide.
