I don't like how I played it. But to be honest I don't know how I should play it. MP probably has air and CO has flush often there.

You can't really play it any other way with such a weak kicker you can't raise the turn for value since when ever you get called UTG will have a better kicker with his K and he has position on you. Since he has some reasonable stats his UTG range is mostly AK, KQ, KJ and all his kings have you beat.

And CO could have a better king as well as the FD so folding the turn is probably the best play here.

You could turn your hand into a bluff considering none of them has a very strong hand. The best made hand they can have is AK since UTG is betting overpairs, JT and set on the flop 100% of the time and so will the CO. If not CO is raising all his monsters on the turn given how drawy the board just got multiway.
So when they're capped at FD or AK at best then raising the turn and betting the river on any card should be +EV, but on the other hand against random opponents on NL50 its pretty much suicide to try getting them off TPTK.

Would c/r turn get any credibility? Would you check turn with set/straight?
Let's say you c/r turn, and get called by CO, do you bet if spade comes?


Don´t really like c/r turn, since I think your hand isn´t good enough, but imo it is strong enough to lead turn for value and c/c on blank river.
River fold is fine. Don´t expect CO to bluff there and I doubt he i betting for value KT or 9T
