PF, my call is because I think the odds are good, I have to pay 2bb to see a flop with already 10BB in pot (and I have suited connectors! LOL (donk)).
Anyway, the donkbet in flop is because I have TPNK, and I may have the best hand, since everyone just called, also Im OOP there is not too much I can do (c/c? c/r(LOL)? c/f(weak?)) against 4 folks.
Turn, Im pretty sure I have the best hand, the bet is a value bet.
River, well.. is a scare card, the villain might really have the flush, but he also maybe have another two pair, I dont think the villain have a set in this board, a set would raise me on flop.. So, my check is to control the pot, I definitely don't want to bet and get a push here..

Preflop the odds are indeed good for your "suited connector" ;) but you could have squeeze too.
Flop why donking ? Check/raise powa !
Turn ok of course, and river easy x/f without pecular read, nobody's coming that far to bluff you out of it, unless your opponent is "bluffing" with a set, 43 or AQo with the Ace of spades.

I like it. Preflop call, donk on flop, raise turn and check/ fold river.

donkbet is because I dont think that any worst hand will call a c/r here, and my hand is not good for a c/r/push, a c/r here would only transform my hand in bluff

Looks good. River I would check fold. Kx and Qx are blocked and I'm not sure villain will turn his showdown value into a bluff very often.

do you guys really think squeeze(bluff) might be good? I do think that squeeze in NL 10 for bluff, without any read, is one of the worst move ever, people here call anything and KQs OOP is dominated and I will never know if Im ahead..
Well, that might work and I win the 10bb, but when I get a call or a 4bet I will loose the squeeze (lets say 15bbs in squeeze/fold and maybe 100bb when I get call and hit the Q?), so that have to work 7~10x to make sense, I do not think that will happen.

he doesn t have price to call on the turn, if he calls with a flush draw you put the money good. He can have some sets too. How about bet 35% OTR, and fold to a raise? At least it makes it more complicated for him to steal. Given he has not that much behind and that doesn't leave him the fold equity required to steal.

IMO KQs would be more squeeze for value, not bluff. But I find that's a hand that plays well multiway, so I don't mind your call here.

Preflop I like both, call/squeeze. I agree with your play, OTR I fold. OTF - FD out there, we have top pair, villain might often check as well, so I believe donk is good. OTT not much beats us, so we get money in. The river is fold, this is almost always value bet.
