You still bet this scare card, right?

Yes, I'd play it the same way.

Bet and call the turn.

Don't mind two or three bets on river. So I CR there. Unless I'm sure he'll check behind.

It depends on how sure you are that you're beat. If you are 100% sure you're beat, you fold. But according to SSHE, you need specific information to make this conclusion, which I doubt you can get on-line.

On the turn I would suspect I am 22.5:1 against beating a set of Kings, which I am pretty sure he has.

But it's OK for you to check and call the way you did. If the pot was bigger, going all the way is an easy play.

This original post may seem kind of simplistic, and I apologize. Especially with such a small pot at stake. I really feel like my aggression has gotten me into a lot of trouble lately, so I'm re-evaluating my game from top to bottom. I'm starting with the simple stuff, making sure I'm not making fundamental errors, then moving up. Thanks for the continued feedback. Results to come...
