I hate these spots

SB is solid player at this limit, has been steaming a little in last 20 minutes
HJ is unknown

NL 20 6 Max WSOP

SB 27.42
BB 20.32
UTG Hero 20.00
HJ 19.43
CO 20.00
Button 26.30

Hero is UTG with A

Hero raises to .60, HJ calls .60, 2 folds, SB calls .60, BB folds

Pot 1.89 8

SB checks, Hero?

You raised UTG, a bet here MW is fine. Especially in the sandwiched spot.

[x] Terrible flop for your range.
[x] Terrible flop for your hand.
[x] OOP.
[x] Multiway.

If you want to throw some money into the abyss, c-bet the flop.

I am value betting TT+ checking 88,33,22 (as I have effective nuts), so 30 combos of value hands.

I think I am bluffing AKs,AQs,AJs,KQs of

so that is 12 combos of bluffs. Do I need an additional 12-18 bluff combos multi-way to make a better bluff to value ratio?

I think you might want your range to be more.value heavy in a 4way pot.

You shouldn't be doing much bluffing in multiway pots OOP. If you have any bluffs, they should be mostly be very strong draws that will still have equity vs a calling range on the turn. I'd consider betting A5s and A4s in the 3 suits on the board. I'm not betting any AK/AQ, since they only have great equity vs the folding ranges of the opponents.
i.e. You don't want to bet AK if it makes people fold AQ/AJ (worse hands), but call with 88/33/22/A8. You can bluff with A5s to make better hands (like AQ/AJ) fold.
