I do not actually like betting here and I generally take a check call down line on 2 streets and fold to betting on 3 streets.

Looks ok I guess. Just about vulnerable enough that we can consider betting. I'd probably check the flop most of the time though and x/c. I highly doubt we should x/c twice though, once is fine if our checking range is constructed properly.

I much prefer a call prefop, you have 3 hands on villain.

As played second pair OOP on this flop texture is a usual check call. Villain should have loads of Kx and pocket pairs which are never folding. It's tough to get value by betting out. Then on the turn I'm check calling or check folding depending on what I know about villain.

I would mainly be check calling this hand once. To balance this I'd be check calling some of my Kx bluffs like KJ or KT.
