On a scale of 1 to 10... (5/10 SH)

... how badly did I botch this hand?

No special reads, but UTG seems a bit aggressive so far.
I checked the turn planning to check-raise all-in.

UTG ($1000) and BTN ($800) limp, SB completes, and I rap in the BB (I cover) with [9d]

.

Flop

, pot $40.
SB checks, I bet $40, UTG calls, BTN calls, SB folds.

Turn [Kc]

, pot $160.
I check, UTG checks, BTN checks.

River [Ks]

, pot $160.
I check, UTG bets $40, BTN raises to $280, I...?

Thoughts on my line?

Well i don't know about the two limpers but i don't like the play on the turn because you shouldn't give someone with Kd a free card, if UTG player is aggressive as you say he'll probably pay you off with a flush draw. And IMO it would be totaly ok if you picked up the pot on the turn, because you have a vulnerable hand. UTG seems very weak with that 40$ bet in 160$ pot so i would put him on a pair of sixes or smth like that i would doubt that he has smth like a full house with pocket deuces. BTN's reraise definitively shows strength, but you got to ask yourself what kind of strength. I think i would make the call (it, if nothing less i would get some info on BTN player, but as i said before i would make a bet on the turn and probably pick it up right there.

About your plan to reraise allin on the turn, well i wouldn't like that play because such an overbet would be called only if someone would have a higher flush, because such a check-raise is totaly obvious. With 9Ts out of position you should be glad to take down a 160$ pot. I'm always happy when i take down a pot with this kind of hand.

Bunch of nits. I know tuff_fish would at least call..

your flush is very well diguised (misplayed if you want to call it that).

Folding sux either way. UTG is said to be a bit aggressive so his mini river bet means squat/8% lucky sob..

Talking about 35s is absolute bull.

I see no problem with this hand until the turn. Not leading the turn is the only mistake.

Bet the turn. Call the river.

Oh, and to answer the original question, your botched rating is only a 4-5. Not terrible at all.
