I don't think I would check the flop, depends what your aim is for checking, are you hoping to bluff catch? If your aim is to check call then I prefer this against only one opp if they are an aggressive player. Against 2 opp I think I'd bet the flop to rep the ace (which is in your range) and try to take the pot down, there's 1035 in the pot so I'm betting around 350 or 400 on the flop.You only gotta win slightly better than 1 in 4 for this to be profitable and I think you'll get folds plenty enough of the time to make this a decent line, if you get called then you can check and re-evaluate on the turn.
As played I think a fold is the correct decision.

Below is my own recent play with KK which I marked for review – so may as well post here with it too!
Do you find a fold on any of the streets here, and what is your action on the river?
I wish I could bring up villain's stats but the stats are not working in the hand reviewer for some reason, but I had not been at the table very long and villain had not been involved in any hands that I noticed so assume was playing fairly tight, and people do in general tend to play pretty tight from what I've seen in the $12 Daily Double.

I'm not leading out. There's a good chance that one of them has an A. I think you would be spewing chips when you don't have to. You have KK and started with 27bb's. IF, you lead out, how much are you doing to lead? say you put 400-500 and someone raises you like they did….. you just spewed away another 500 in chips. Now you are down to 2700. Save the chips. Sucked that they prob have an A or spades, but move on the to the next hand and save some chips.
