Hero has $100, others have me covered, but not by much. Have been sitting down for about an orbits worth

Villain1: 100/71 over 12 hands
Villain 2: 100/67 over 12 hands

Dealt to hero [Ah Ad]
2 folds
Hero raises $2 to $3
Villain1: calls $3
2 folds
Villain2 (in SB) calls $2.50
*** FLOP *** [8d Th 8h] (pot is $9)
Villain 2: checks
Hero: bets $6
Villain1: calls $6
Villain2: calls $6
*** TURN *** [8d Th 8h] [As] (pot is $27)
Villain2: checks
Hero?

I was originally tempted to bet here in case one of my opponents has something like AT, A8, K8s, Q8s, 78s, 98s, T8s, TT. I'm a big fan of betting and raising with nut hands to build a pot and let opponents do something stupid, but if there are lots of pairs in my opponents ranges (22-99, JJ), or hands like KT, QT, JT, T9 a check here would be better, since they may call a value bet on the river , but will fold to a bet here on the turn.

I think I've decide now, however, that checking is best no matter what their ranges are, because if they do have an 8 or TT, then they are probably stacking off on the river anyway. Betting here scares away the weaker worse hands. The only possible hand worth betting into here would be someone with a T and a flush draw, right?

Comments on my thoughts, and what's the best line

J9/JQ are always calling, Q9/ other gutshots are sometimes calling, AT/random Ax floats you lose a ton against by checking. This is a very very clear bet, checking is horrible.
