Looking back on this, I'm thinking I should've raised the flop.

The monster you should be afraid of is a PP, not a K. You have the nut missed-the-board; raise the flop. To a lower PP, you have six outs, plus a backdoor flush draw.

I raise the flop, bet the turn if checked to, and usually check behind on the river if the fates still haven't come through for me.

Make that seven outs, but nix the backdoor flush draw. It's pretty and all, but doesn't do much against the lower PP's full house.
