I see no problem with not betting the flop if you're looking to put out a check raise. Checking here though I hope you have some sort of read, probably on the villian, that he will bet if checked to just because he has position. If you think it is unlikely that someone may bet, such as you've seen the villian check flops when he's last to acct before, then I would lead at this flop as someone may think you are betting second pair.

After checking the flop the turn bet looks good. The K has to raise some flags on the river but you have TP now with the best kicker. I hate his min raise and make a crying call hoping he has a worse ace or he thought I was bluffing and bet a pair of kings like a donkey.
