I think it might be close between betting turn and check/calling for value.

If we're betting the flop to protect the best hand in a multiway pot against villians who could have more than ten outs against us, checking the turn when the 8 comes sounds wrong.

You know it sounds weird to me too but if you look at it from a value stand point I like it.

I'd rather check/call the flop from a value standpoint if we're trying to trap semi-bluff bets here. I really don't know how I feel about a flop bet here. It's probably the best hand on the flop, but we're dumping if half the deck (4, 6, 9 or heart) comes, and the villains know our range is so loose (from their view, we could just as easily be semi-bluffing here) that I don't really see us getting many hands to fold by betting this flop. Check/folding the flop doesn't sound awful to me, because betting/building a bigger pot OOP where I have no idea where I'm at sounds like a recipe for chip spew.
