Was this a good play

I inevitably made the best hand, The price was cheap so i went in to draw for the Straight flush, if the limit had been higher I may not have played it.
Would it have been? Say if i was In a MTT or something, If no one bets it or just bets it weak? Or did i just get real lucky?

If you play this limit seriously and you honest think this was a good play i have to say no, flop JJJ and you are calling a raise with 9 hi? and why are you raising on the turn i dont get it, if u make a flush ure hand is not gonna be good ,with the other guy calling on flop and turn aswell.

Basically yeah you got really really lucky, dont understand any of your post flop play at all but eh, what do i know i dont even play limit.

Also, this isnt really fitting for "advanced theory ."

my fault, i looked at the others to see where I should put it, I didnt expect that to hold up really , but when the turn came i was down to one out and i just thought that if he didnt have the J I could represent that i had it, since its limit and micro to boot, i figured he would call, I was shocked to see it come out though, I just thought it was cool and kind of a bad beat too, he did have a boat.
