50NL MW AsJs, QsTs8 9 facing plenty action after leading flop and turn

UTG2: $30
LJ: $35.39
HJ: $12.45
CO: $6.16
BN: $37.61
SB: $54.68 (Hero)
BB: $48.83
UTG: $51.68
UTG1: $21.31
UTG+1 is very loose and fishy. LJ seems nitty postflop. Other villains sample stats very small to draw meaningful conclusions and no decent reads just yet
Preflop ($0.45) (9 Players)
Hero was dealt A J
UTG folds, UTG1 raises to $0.60, UTG2 folds, LJ calls $0.60, HJ folds, CO calls $0.60, BN calls $0.60, Hero calls $0.45, BB folds
I don't know if a squeeze would work here unless i made it really big. I prefer calling with these hands in multiway pots to dominate worse draws.
Flop ($3.30) Q 8 T (5 Players)
Hero bets $1.80, UTG1 calls $1.80, LJ calls $1.80, CO folds, BN calls $1.80
I'm not too sure of how villains will bet in multiway pots so i decide to build the pot right away with great equity versus everything.
Turn ($10.50) 9 (4 Players)
Hero bets $6, UTG1 calls $6, LJ raises to $32.99, BN folds, Hero calls $26.99, UTG1 calls $12.91
Unfortunately this isn't one of my 'nut' outs and i can potentially lose to exactly KJ. If i bet here i still stack off, if i check here do i plan to check call? I'm committed to the pot if i bet with so much money behind and UTG+1 potentially stacking off with worse.
River ($95.39) T (3 Players)
Final Pot
LJ has J K Hero has A J UTG1 has J K LJ wins $27.52 , LJ wins $31.93 , UTG1 wins $31.94
I usually don't show the results, i just don't want to redo my comments (i forgot to remove the results when posting). However, i think the turn raise from the nit pretty much indicates KJ here anyway, i just felt as UTG+1 was coming along i had odds - i had to make a quick decision with no time bank, but already had decided to bet call with my turn bet sizing.

Versus exactly KJ i'm losing $5 calling here, the times he simply has a bare J its fine. My quick calculation during the hand was wrong as i thought the other stack padded my turn decision into a call.

How might i play the flop differently instead? do i ever check the turn since KJ may be a reasonable holding given the pot is multiway?
