9 handed live 1/2 cash game utg1 . One limper in mid and I raise to 7 and get a blind and the limper. I have kjos and flop is KJT with 2 spades. I bet 17 into 23 dollar pot after two checks and the turn is 8 spades. Blind bets 20 and limper calls . I had the jack of spades tanked and folded. Both players were decent and not straight up tag and 7 pre was not to much that a wide range of hands were not in their range

Fold unless you are sure you can count on getting in a raise and a call or all in of you boat up. You need to win >240; you are likely drawing to no more than 4 outs. If you are not sure about getting paid off, just let it go. One of them has you beat almost all the time.

Don't play KJo from UTG+1.
This.

Also, what's the reasoning of your 3.5x open? 7 players left to act, you're not getting called by worse. Even if the table is too loose, KJo is not the hand you want to play in EP. Post flop, your c-bet is fine. On the turn, I think you have to give your opponent credit because this is a 3-way pot. You can take a shot at those 4 outs if you're confident that you will be able to stack him once you hit.

Unimproved, I doubt if you'll ever be good at the showdown.
