BB just sat down

Flop check is good. I'd fold the turn.

I agree, check behind on flop, fold turn

Why attempt a steal from a loose and aggressive player like that in the small blind?

b/c you most likely have him dominated and if you can get it HU with him you love your postflop chances.

I think i would try for a free crad here. I bet the flop. try to check behind on the turn and see the river.
if u get raised flop or he bets the turn we could fold (if the pots not to big....)

If you aren't openraising K9o on the Button, you are losing a ton of value. The fact that your opponents are loose is fine - consider it a value raise - you probably have the best hand, you can take the initiative immediately, and you have the best position. This is a very important concept.

my thoughts were with the turn, if he made it three he represented a hand and i fold. When the river was the 7 i thought i couldnt ask for a better card. anything to add?

why are you raising this turn?? You put him on two high overs and hoped you could fold him? I guess not that far off with his flop check but i've seen many players go for a c/r here and then wiff so they are forced to bet out the turn. yeah not a big fan of the turn play. river is fine with how you played it.
