What is villians agression factor here ? He could well be floating here given the size of your turn bet.

I would think a check behind is better thern 1/2 pot bet on the turn if villian is aggressive post flop.

If he is passive then bet size is good and its probably a fold.

I'd check the turn. As played fold.

I like your line if you bet just a bit more on the turn (300) and folded to the raise. I think he has the K often enough for you to fold here.

You've gotta use some pot control on the turn. There aren't too many worse hands that are calling anyway. Definitely check behind, and use those 300 chips to call the river instead of bet/folding. As played, gotta fold.

I like the turn bet and size(maybe a little bigger). After the flop call it is very likely you are ahead. The king is basically a blank unless he somehow peeled the flop with AK or called preflop with K9 which both seem unlikely. The only real hands that beat you are slowplayed sets/straight. Even at the 114's people will make dumb semibluffs with hands like 89s 76s 77 88, turned pair + flush draw or A9. I'd usually like some sort of read before making this kind of call but I wouldn't blame you if you did.
