In a multiway pot and being in early position, instead of continuation betting, is it better to check/call or check/fold depending on the rest of the action?

PokerStars - $3.11+$0.39|15/30 Ante 4 NL - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

MP: 77.43 BB (VPIP: 15.38, PFR: 15.38, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 27)
CO: 29.5 BB (VPIP: 29.23, PFR: 7.81, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 65)
BTN: 60.77 BB (VPIP: 48.15, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 27)
SB: 30.13 BB (VPIP: 20.81, PFR: 15.38, 3Bet Preflop: 6.90, Hands: 175)
BB: 176.9 BB (VPIP: 37.04, PFR: 11.54, 3Bet Preflop: 20.00, Hands: 27)
Hero (UTG): 75.27 BB

6 players post ante of 0.13 BB, SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 2.3 BB) Hero has T♦ K♦

Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, CO calls 3 BB, BTN calls 3 BB, SB calls 2.5 BB, BB calls 2 BB

Flop: (15.8 BB, 5 players) 8♠ 2♦ Q♦
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets 8.5 BB, CO calls 8.5 BB, fold, fold, fold

Turn: (32.8 BB, 2 players) J♥
Hero bets 32.8 BB, CO calls 17.87 BB and is all-in

River: (68.53 BB, 2 players) 5♠

Spoiler

Hero shows T♦ K♦ (High Card, King)
(Pre 31%, Flop 38%, Turn 34%)

I would go for x/c here. We don't close the action, we can't probably fold out everyone -> we can play passively and not pump the pot with our draw.

Pre-flop is already a close open with KTs from UTG. Also you need to beware off that we dealing with 2 loose passive players on the CO and BTN. So you will play often out of position post-flop.

As played I would play the draw passive against 3 players and I would check and call if he would make a standard bet and fold most turns if we miss the draw.
