Default [20NL] playing TPWK 3way on a very wet board

UTG is the most passive of all lose passives. He limps a huge percentage of his hands pf, and c/cs with his entire range - draws, TPTK, 2pair, sets, all of it. The only time he ever raises is when he check raises the river with the nuts, or close to it. SB plays too many hands, but doesn't seem terrible. BTN is unknown.

This is a very loose passive fishy table. What do you guys think of my line? It's kind of tough to play ATo when you get this many callers imo, even from the CO.

By the turn, I'm aware that it's quite possible that UTG has me beat because he takes this line with everything even when the board is this wet, and there aren't a ton of aces left that I beat. I figure I have to bet the turn to charge draws, and I know I can show it down for free because even with the nuts UTG will look to c/r. I think that my turn betsizing is awkward, because I'm pricing in draws and the button is shoving his last few chips on pretty much any river, so I'm giving UTG a free shot at a c/r when he has the nuts (but I guess this doesn't matter, because I don't think he's bluff c/r ing the river like ever, or indeed bluffing at all).

Comments on all streets please.

Since people don't seem to be folding preflop make a bigger raise instead of just potting. You get more value and thin the field which obviously increases your pot-equity with a hand like ATo.

Flop is good... turn is awkward, but you do need to value-bet. I kinda like your 1/2-pot bet size, though it could be a bit bigger.

I agree with your comments. By the turn, the button has $8 left, I think that would have been a better betsize, followed by a check through on the river.

Firstly very nice stack size =p.
With this many opponents and this board we have to bet the flop although people are going to call very often. Honestly this turn is pretty blank to their ranges so a double barrel is in order. The size however could be a tincy bit bigger imo. I check this river tho becoz the 9 does complete some draws. Nice line.
