Both opponents have been very splashy and getting involved in almost every pot for the past hour. Wasn't overly concerned with the A on the turn, but now that we've been counterfeited should I just be checking hoping to get to showdown?

What was the river card? An A, or a 9 I assume.

Sorry just edited. It was an A

The fact that you have been called by two players, twice! Tells me that a Q is NOT going to win this at showdown. This reminds me of the adage regarding going broke in limped pots.

I would never bomb this turn. It is a terrible card for you, as any pair with an ace has you crushed. The fact that UTG cold called you x/r is also concerning. The only real draw is exactly J10 (16 combos), whereas Q9, 99, and 33 (10combos) all have you crushed. Without descriptions it is difficult to range villains more, if AQ is in the UTG limp range, then bombing this turn is definitely bad.

Honestly, you are unlikely to get 2 folds on a paired river, and should just give up. But I never make it to this spot with this weak of a hand.

I would lead out 2/3 pot on flop and not check raise; check raising puts us in bad shape OOP with a marginally made hand no matter what the run out is even for a dry board. It's just that if we got raised on the flop, is it possible for opponent to have 9x9x depending on player type to limp in with that exact hand.

Check folding. Not getting fancy with a check raise bluff in this situation.

It suicks, but this is looking bad with two callers on the turn. If someone bets here they almost certainly have you beat, and I wouldn't try any fancy check raising.

Pretty much time to give up. Check and plan to give up. There is really just nothing that 2 players are calling with on turn that your not chopping or losing now. We can give one a chance of JT but not two and anything worse then QX should be giving up on the turn. There is too much action to think it's good. You can't really even plan to call a small suck bet here because if somebody did call with worse on the turn they may have an A and your losing to most QX on the kicker.

This is the sort of annoying situation where the 1 time in 20 that you are winning is when villains will show JT and JJ.

x/f river, what else are you going to do?

Also I slow down with this hand once the flop raise gets called in two spots. I might even just flat, he's betting pot which is building value for us.

I think UTG has TJ here a lot, which just leaves co. I would check and hope to get to showdown

I would re raise To at least $80 on the flop. Check/fold river sadly
