One of my play's from last night and I'm wondering if there is a better way to play this?

I'm dealt Kh Ad, no raise's before me so I raise 3x BB
Bandit 1 calls
Bandit 2 Calls
Flop is Ac 10s As
Bandit 1 & 2 check so I make pot size bet
Bandit 1 & 2 fold

Would I have been better to make a smaller, say 2x BB bet hoping one or both Bandit's would come in, or just check the bet to show that I possibly didn't have an Ace?

In this case you took the safe route. You don't mention the size of the blinds. If the blinds were 20/40k this is a great play because you just grabbed 80k in chips.

If you are short stack and need chips this is a fine play.

Anything else you are inviting/allowing people to catch up and in the end beat you with a flush or get there with 2 pair or straight. If it was a rainbow flop then this would be considered a bad play. In reality you need to treat this as a win.
