Reviewing this hand now I'm thinking the best play being UTG is to just fold. I don't have a lot of experience playing this shorthanded like this and with majority of the players being tight I thought I could work with a suited King.

After my cbet is called by both players, what is your recommendation on the turn? If it was a full table and I was playing this hand for some reason, I'm pretty sure I would x/f, but with only 5 players do I have a better chance of my TPNK being a good hand?

Your flop cbet is so small you are actually giving everyone the correct price to draw.
And there are a ton of draws on this board.
If you want to bet....and as you are UTG you can represent a cbet, 60% looks about right but if we get called we check the turn unless we improve.
Anyone with 2 broadway cards has either a pair or a draw to the nut straight plus there is a flush draw, no one is going away to a single bet on this board and because of that personally I'd check this flop.... apart from the btn they look quite tight especially the CO.
I see someone said fold preflop, that for me would depend where the active player is. Here he is on the btn so we know we will have to play the hand oop most of the time so yes a fold pre is ok. It the active player was in the blinds and out of position to us then we can open with more confidence.

Online we usually want to bet more, UTG we always want to bet more. Standard c-bet is half pot for value, but you are semi-bluffing so you may want to raise 2/3 pot generally. But at this level nobody will read your 2/3 pot bet as weak and a half pot size bet as strength like at higher levels, so just c-bet 1/2 pot. Slow down on turn and see what they do, if you keep barreling you won't know where you're at. Some people think checking shows weakness, but at higher levels it could be viewed in so many different ways. Just check turn and if someone bets fold. And yeah, next time fold K3 unless it's folded to you and you are on the BTN and you are looking to steal from fishy blinds. In that spot though in the BTN against fishy Blinds you still need to fold the turn if they bet into you. K3 you are really just looking for a flush draw, you don't care if the K paired the board.

Thanks for the feedback!

I understand that I should be folding this hand preflop. The small flop cbet is also something that I noticed myself doing in multiway pots after reviewing some hands and have already started to address it.
