Hero (CO): 487.8 BB
BTN: 100 BB
SB: 102.5 BB
BB: 212.6 BB
UTG: 100 BB
MP: 126.4 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has J♦ A♣

fold, fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, BTN calls 3 BB, fold, BB calls 2 BB

Flop: (9.5 BB, 3 players) 5♣ 9♥ A♦
BB checks, Hero bets 5 BB, BTN calls 5 BB, fold

Turn: (19.5 BB, 2 players) 7♣
Hero bets 11 BB, BTN calls 11 BB

River: (41.5 BB, 2 players) K♥
Hero checks, BTN bets 40 BB, ???

Are looking at this hand I don't think buttons floats with someone else to act.

At river in my mind I don't see him value betting a worst ace like AT.

What are your thoughts on this?

I don't know if you have any information about the villain in this hand, but against almost a potsize bet on the river I need really good reads to call here. The rest of the hand seems pretty standard. Maybe you could Cbet river around 20bb and fold to a shove, but that's villain depended.

Cheers,

With TpTk I would not check the river, it looks like a way ahead / way behind scenario. Bet the river, when raised you are probably beat.

This is exactly why I dislike cbetting in multiway hands like this. I would start value betting this flop in 3way from AQ+ and add some Ax suited with bfd. AJo I would pure check/call and start squeezing value from turn.

As played I think blockbet river is best because board is favourable for you so I dont expect many bluff raises. If you check and see pot size bet then readless I would fold. You should have better hands in your river range.
