    On the last hand you are behind at all times except the turn.

    On the third hand the guy with K9s is the favourite. Factor in that he might have live kings as well and that's an insta-push for his hand. Even without them he is slight favourite with 50.4% equity against two opponents. You have 46.7%.

    Of course you weren't folding the 3rd hand... but then again, I don't think there was much chance of the others folding either (not at the $5 level)... especially if the K9 guy felt his K was going to still play.
