Right before this hand, a similar situation happened where there were 3 limpers and I made it 3.5, both of them called and I folded on flop. This hand I decided to make it slightly larger for value since they don't seem to like folding. What should we do here? Are we betting for value? (lol?)

UTG: 73/0/1.7 over 34 hands
UTG+1: 65/26/1.7 over 31 hands

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

UTG ($29.10)
UTG+1 ($33.45)
MP1 ($10)
MP2 ($7.25)
Hero (CO) ($50)
Button ($50)
SB ($50)
BB ($40.70)

Preflop: Hero is CO with K, A
UTG calls $0.50, UTG+1 calls $0.50, MP1 calls $0.50, 1 fold, Hero bets $4, 3 folds, UTG calls $3.50, UTG+1 calls $3.50, 1 fold

Flop: ($13.25) 8, 8, 6 (3 players)
UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero ???

 at best you are ahead and up against 4 - 12 outs so you have to bet here if you think you're ahead.

Agree, bet for value/protection.
Against these opponents you have a good hand in average, but vulnerable.
If both call I might check for pot control on the turn and be careful if someone bets the river since they are passive.

Now what? If they called a bet on that flop surely they are calling another bet on that turn? Should we check for pot control?

Should I have made it bigger on the flop? At the time I thought that half-pot gets them to fold overcards and such, and if i made it any larger they're still not folding their pp's/draws? And if i bet like 10 it's kind of committing?

 Yeah it's smaller than my norm... $10 might be ideal.
