Re: 25NL lost to a higher kicker
Honestly you played this horribly. You must realize that you should only play those trap hands like KJ out of position if you know what to do with them post flop. This hand indicate to me that you don´t and i would recommend that you fold these hands to a preflop raise. Even more an UTG raise.
As played you must check the flop (or if you insist on betting, you should bet closer to the pot. You gain nothing by this bet)
usually you check the turn for pot size control, but if you plan on moving in anyway, you should really just do it on the turn as you´re really just giving them a free card should they have a draw (9-10, or an A)
other than that you should consider always playing with a full buy in, even though i'm not against playing short.
