How often am I good here?

Just sat down so no real reads except the table is pretty loose/passive.

Also, how was my play on the turn? Should I have just pushed the turn instead?

Fairly often, I think. I might be afraid of KK, but the way he played the flop, it's probably not that, because the raise was so small. It seems to me like he might have QKs and just doesn't realize it's not that good PF, because after that K comes he's just check/calling.

That check on the river is also odd, because the two of you are both pot committed anyway, so why not push?

I push on the turn since there are some scare cards that can come on the river to kill your action, also pushing is pretty much pot-sized anyway and I think you need to pot the turn so push.
