How could I have played this better. I felt with the call and overcall, I was probably beat (esp. since I was playing the blinds with low-cards on board). Did I slow down too quickly?

fold preflop, check the flop through, check the turn through, fold the river.

KJo is not a good multiway hand.

So when you say multi-handed. Is that 3,4,5 players? When does it become playable? HU only?

KJo is an easily dominated hand. I play it in end position only, and then I come in for a raise. It isn't a good hand, but it's great for a blind-steal.
