It's likely you'll get at least one caller anyway and you're OOP so you want to narrow the field.

After the flop, you've got to lead out there to define your opponents' hands and to guard against the flush draw. I'm betting the pot here. I understand you were trying for the check raise, but if both players had checked behind you, you're giving someone a possible free draw to a flush.

On the turn, you've got to bet at least 2/3rds the pot. I'm betting the pot myself, but I like to bet hard in these cases, especially if I think I'll get called and if I think I'm way ahead.

On the river, you probably need to call, but don't be surprised if he turns over KQ. It's possible he has A-K though and a host of other cards. That's why it's important to put him on a range. If you have any reads on the guy, the all-in bet can guide your decision. If not, you are getting the odds to call.
This. You played this hand pretty horribly. Look at the pot odds to call this iver shove, if he ever spazzes with a king or bluffs a missed fd here then you need to call. You need to call if there's like any chance of this at all given this price.

Checking the flop is bad because

A. You're risking giving people a free card and on this board there's quite a few bad turns to see.

B. You're just missing a ton of value by not betting, draws and kings will defo call multiple bets here.

C. Some of these hands we're getting value from may not even call c/r if they DO bet, where as they will indefinitely call multiple streets. This pot's already getting big so there's just no need to c/r to get all the money in just bet 3 streets hard with the bonus of protection.
