You don't need to go into such a deep analyze on micro stakes because most of opponents are playing face up poker. And blockers are not too usefull on full ring. And if opponent is some weak player, he will call you with over pairs even if you jam. So I prefer jaming with straight only in that spot, because weak opponents will call you with TP and better on those micros.

Pre Flop:
I don't like your iso. First of all there are 2 shorter stacks behind you so you will be facing a lot of shoves from them. Second problem is that when you are iso raising you wanna have value hand against opponent limping range and KJo is not so good against that. Unless limper is some very wide one like 60/10. Third one is size of your iso. I prefer 3x+1x for every limper.

Flop:
Flop is not ideal one for multiway pot, where UTG limp and BB call your PF iso. It is more on there site than on yours. What are turns that you are hoping for when you are bluffing on flop? They won't fold often enough for your bluff to go through. Also stack setup is the one that I don't like to play big pot with just over cards in multiway pot. Keep it small. So I prefer to check back.

Turn:
Turn is blank and doesn't improve you. Here I like your check back.

River:
What are you represent by bet, check, bet? A6 and 66 or maybe JT. What do you expect him to fold on river? Only think that he is folding here is missed FD and even with it he will call some time with A high. It is true that if you wanna win that hand you need to bet big enough for him to fold. But I don't see much hands that he fold here, so just give up and take his chips next time.

GL at tables!

Against fishy players I wouldn’t mind the isolation raise, but if you end up multi way and you don’t hit anything you should give up right away. A Cbet against so many players will newer work as bluff.
