Check/folding the turn is also an option.

I was gonna put that down..but i thought it sounded a bit weak/tight. However i did consider the turn bettor to be resonably fishy (even though i had seen him make some stupid plays earlier), so check/folding may not be too bad of an option.

When you bet and get 1 caller on a flop like this it's always correct to bet again on the turn because there are a ton of drawing possibilitis.

When you bet and get 2 callers, there's a reasonable chance you still have the best hand because maybe one has a diamond draw and one has a g/s or a straight draw or even a 9. But you should proceed with caution.

But with 3 callers you have to assume one of the opponents very likely has an ace (especially since 2 of them cold called preflop - bad players hate to fold aces preflop) and it's going to cost you 2BB to get to showdown. So I like the turn check. When there's a bet and a call I would consider folding. You can make a loose call if you think you'll be able to make up the difference when you hit a K/J but you should fold the river unimproved, but folding I think is usually a better plan here. If it was a bet and 2 folds I would probably call down unless the bettor was very passive.
