I checked flop because in 2 way pots you normally don't lead, but I am not sure how much that applies to 3 way. I guess if I lead I would do it with TPGK to sets and low flush(draws).
On the turn it should be a clear bet and I would assume a rather big sizing, although I am not sure if 4BB is big.
I check/fold the river since I don't see many calls/raises with non flush hands here.

And two hands later I am in basically the same spot.
The flop bet seems standard, although I am not quite sure on the sizing.
Then on the turn there is probably still some flush draws and worse kings that are gonna pay me and a non all in sizing seems awkward.
I think in general I am a bit too scared of flushes and 3 way does not make it better. So I wanted to see what you think about these spots.
