Is my play correct? If I am raised, do I check call to the river or fold?

You played this very nicely. Calling a raise depends on your read on villain. That's why its important to constantly observe your opponents on how they'll play their hands. i'd usually call a raise.

good hand.

If you are raised on the river, you would need to make a decision based on your read of that player. I would fold against anybody unless I had the read:

"will bluff raise a scare card with less than TPTK"

seems ok in my book. there might be a case to try and go for a cr on flop, but with what seems very passive play from the rest of the table betting out is no bad thing.
betting out on the turn is good as there is a good chance it will get checked through and it keeps putting them under pressure and with no strength shown you probably have the best hand.
on the river, i would probably bet as well, although check/call might be an option with the possible flush being completed. not sure what best option is here as my river play is somewhat suspect.

never attempt to c/r the flop in this situation.

I agree.
Noone has shown agression and you have a strong hand. You will lose alot of value by attempting a craise cuz it'll get checked through way too often while people with far worse hands than you will call a flop bet.

Yep, bet/bet/bet until someone wants you to stop line is perfect.

Not enough equity with Kj off for a preflop raise here ?

I think you might find more people in this forum who'd tell you to fold KJo preflop in this situation than who'd tell you to raise. KJo is a decent hand for 0.5 SB, but you'll be out of position the whole hand.

I think you played that hand just fine.

This looks fine to me, no one showed any aggression, and you got as much into the pot as I think you are able.

I would call on the river to a raise. Assuming the opponents are passive, I think I'm losing to a raise, but I would call it. I think I would fold if it were re-raised, though. Is that right?
