For those of you who favor (or at least don't dislike) betting the turn, is this standard for you, to bet into two unknown opponents with an underpair on a board like this? I'm aware they could both be on a number of draws, but I wonder whether they will both be on draws or fold pairs (or have crap) often enough to make this a good play.

I could be really, really, wrong, but I'm slowing up when and ace or king falls. In position, when the both check the turn, I see little wrong with betting.

The river play might be quesionable, but I prefer a bet fold to a check call cuz I'm aggro that way.

I agree. The only thing that I find moderately questionable is the river bet -- I probably would have given up. Aside from this hand, this will do wonders for your image in future hands when you have something decent. This makes me like the line 100x more.

Preflop is completely standard.

The turn bet is also completely standard. You may have the best hand here and the king surely gives you some bluffing equity.

The river is actually fairly close. The reason is that a hand like 99, 98, T8, 97 and maybe even JT and J9 may call a bet on the turn not because they're planning on calling down but because they have odds to draw with the gutshot possibility. If the board were 8J3 instead then a river bet would have much less value.
