Default checking or betting here?

holdem 1/2$ i am button

utg calls, me raise, sb folds bb calls, utg calls

flop: 9sTcTh

bb checks, utg checks, me bet, bb calls, utg folds

turn: Td

bb checks, me bet

river 4h

bb bets, me calls

bb shows 66

me mucks KhQh

The question is my turn bet as i see that calling in the river is out of question: is a very bad play

Is it better to simply check the turn having possibly 6 outs OR is better in this situation bets the turn hoping for a free showdown because winning with only overdcards is a possibility?

I like the turn bet. They'll often muck or you can check behind on the river. You'll often beat KJ-QJ.

However, I'd need a special read to call the river bet.

Yeah, I'm betting that turn. He'll make some loose flop peels that will fold the turn. Gotta fold that river, however.

And what if you do not have the gutshot straigh draw so only Q and K would be good? This makes turn play different?

Nah. Still a good chance you'll pick up the pot on the turn UI.
