TWIWP - the way it was played

I'm checking the flop, because there are too many players, you're trapped in the middle, there's a good chance that, AJ, QJ, KJ, JT, 33, 44 is in someone's range of hands.

I also don't see how one flop bet will fold anyone holding a better hand including, A4s, A3s, 99, TT. I'd rather bet the turn if checked to again.

I also just call the river, because I'm not sure that I have the best hand, but I do think I'm good 1 out of 8.5 times. There is no evidence that btn will call, but there's no evidence that he won't either. The point is, that I'm not closing the action, but I am prepared to SD for 1 bet. This board is the perfect board to slow-play trips, FH, so it would be difficult to pay 2bb when I could've paid just 1.

Your analysis of the hand is spot on, although i'm still not sure what the right play is/was.
Check the flop and bet the turn, or bet the flop and check the turn
Call the river bet or raise.
Still no closer to the right way of playing this hand.
