say you raise KQ in a 6max game and sb and bb call. a ragged 9 high flop comes, do you bet the flop/turn?

they are very weak players but will call with anything

is it really worth betting a small equity edge into 2 opponents ?

If it will get you a free card on the turn.
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

is they are extremely passive, i'll check and hope they check the river again. i prefer firing again on the turn because sometimes you still have the best hand, and you can often check behind the river. i do hate getting donked on the river, but if i hate it gives me a chance to raise.

I vary my play here... a lot.

I'll bet the flop, check raise the flop, check/fold the flop.

I will also bet the turn or check/fold the turn.

It really depends on the table.
