Do you think it is a good idea or profitable to c bet with three players seeing the flop?
Or is the probability that one of the two player hits more than 50 percent of the time?

Depends on:

1. The styles of the players left
2. The outcome of the flop


If the flop is dry, and your opponents are passive, BET!BET!BET!

If the flop is juicy, and your opponent are aggressive, then beware...

check raise ;)

but in all seriousness i just go with a feel ... there is no crime in not C betting if you really feel someone has hit and will simply call you down or re-raise ... but i would say when in doubt continue bet ... just because you get some callers pre-flop does not mean that one of them had to have an A for example ... especially if we are talking about the blinds calling ... sometimes you don't bet, it checks around and they still respect a bet out on the turn ... naturally, there are many ways it can all play out and good players will still remember you raised pre-flop when making decisions in the hand

of course your starting hand is important ... obviously with AK you can play it differently, since you likely have legit outs
