can i bring another view here.
1. betting into 3 players says "i have a king or can beat a king" the chances of action are AK (RERAISING PREFLOP),KQ (This is your best hope),KJs,K10s(if i was big blind and i called w k 10s for pot odds i would either lead or fold to your strong bet.)

2. there are no draws checking is not a major problem.with all the players in the pot it is not a suspicious check.

3. 88 is your only real worry and then you are going to lose all your chips anyway.

i might check call if the last to act bet. its consistent with a hand like 10's-qq where im calling one bet to see if youll fire again.if he fires again he's probably pot committed.ive got him. best case....last to act tries to steal it (or has a king) he bets the blinds raise now im cooking.worst case turn card gives someone a live draw or a made but 2nd best hand and i can bet/raise for value.

p.s.
if the board had any 2 cards 10 or higher im playing fast. the goal is to maximize expectation here.i really don't think leading does that.

I pretty much agree with all of this so I'm not going to take the time to re-type it.

One additional "p.s."; If this were heads-up against the CO I would advocate a bet since it looks like a standard c-bet that a good (I assume reasonably agg?) player may raise or float which leads to more ops to get chips in the pot. Since we are multiway its unlikely anyone gets overly crafty like this.
