Is it correct to play this board by betting de flop and the turn? I dont like this heavy draw flop but i think cant check here. Then the K on the turn is a great card here so i bet the turn for value

This is my thought (i may be wrong)

Pre-flop: You made a right call

Flop : If you are going to lead on the multiway pot, I think you can bet bigger since you want to protect your set. as you mentioned "I dont like this heavy draw flop but i think cant check here. " you should try to protect more by betting more, making the draws' odds harder to call/make bad decisions by calling. I might even consider almost pot size in this case.

Turn: I think you can bet bigger on the Turn as well as the Turn card didn't help anyone else for value and protection.

in terms of line, as you see in the spoiler, I think you did a good job.

(I wish I have such situations.... (sigh))

Hi tuffnut

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: Leading out is definitely fine but given the board and players involved you should most definitely bet a lot larger (closer to pot or even overbetting).

And same thing goes for the turn.

Thanks for the tip(s).

I think i would shove the river here on any card so i played it this way to end up with a nice river bet in ratio to the pot.

If i made it bigger then the riverbet would be too small
