Action so far: 3-way pot 8bb on flop A♦8♣2♠ BB and UTG check
Pot: 8bb To call: 0bb
Villain range:UTG c/c: 88,22,A8s,A2s,K8s+ (mostly air after double check)
Your move:
The math
GTO answer: Bet 3bb
Top pair top kicker on a dry ace-high flop after both opponents checked. Bet small (about a third of pot) to get value from worse aces, pick up the pot from the field, and deny equity. Checking back wastes a clean value street in a multi-way pot.
