The math
GTO answer: Bet 18bb
Top pair top kicker after two streets of check-calls from both opponents and a brick river. Bet about 60 percent pot (18bb) for thin value from worse Kx, 9x, and pocket pairs that may snap off a bluff. Checking back gives up a clear value street. Don't size too big and shed thin calls.
