SB: $5.62 (35.1 bb)
Hero (BB): $16 (100 bb)
UTG: $22.03 (137.7 bb)
MP: $8.76 (54.8 bb)
CO: $13.22 (82.6 bb)
BTN: $35.99 (224.9 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q♠: Q♥:
UTG raises to $0.40, MP calls $0.40, 2 folds, SB calls $0.32, Hero raises to $2.16, UTG calls $1.76, MP folds, SB calls $1.76

Flop: ($6.88) T♦: 2♣: 7♣: (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $3.52, UTG calls $3.52, SB calls $3.46 and is all-in

Turn: ($17.38) 2♠: (3 players, 1 is all-in)
Hero bets $10.32 and is all-in, UTG calls $10.32

River: ($38.02) 8♦: (3 players, 2 are all-in)

Preflop: Decided to squeeze preflop. UTG plays 25/20 in 529 hands and is a reg. SB is most likelly a fish.

Flop: Cbetting for value.

Turn: Can I do something else than shove? UTG is probably not calling with much worse hands OTF.

I don't see how you could have done something else. Nice slowplay with AA by villain though (hand wouldn't have been posted if you won it).

On the first sight it seems "standard". But let's stop and try to take a deeper look into this. What range are you actually giving UTG after he called the flop (and what range are u giving him PF after he called your squeeze) ?

OTT I think villain can have TT-QQ, and some suited hands like: A♣:K♣:,K♣:Q♣:,J♣:T♣:,8♣:9♣:

Seems good. Probably well played in that case. But is is quite close. Because if he just SOMETIMES decides to call with 77 or to slowplay AA ... we are really JUST flipping. Only two combos of 77 make it 50:50 flip. But again, overall I think it was wellplayed.

Yes we might only be flipping but still is there any better lines? I think pre flop and flop were good. On the turn we have less than 2/3 pot left. Are we going to check there and give up on any A,K,T or club, that is almost half of the remaining deck.

What if we check and villain stabs us. He still has those draws and we would have to call. What if he checks behind and river is a blank. He might be slowplaying a full house that doesn't need protection so I think we can't shove river then, we have to check call because no weaker hands will call. But what if villain shoves river when we check twice? Then he can bet 100% of his range.

Playing this hand differently just seems not good and too difficult.

What you guys think about betting smaller OTT? We can probably bet even 1/3 of the pot, as it´s 3 way 3 bet hand? And then fold to any club?

Edit: Now I think maybe folding OTR would be cool? I don´t think villain represents here hands we beat.

I have to say that I don't like that idea. Why would we first give him better odds to call with draws and leave ourselves less than 6$ in 29$ pot and plan to fold it half of the times?

I tried to count it (tried because I think I made a mistake, because it doesn´t make a sense ). Villain is there around 8 dollars in profit (in long run). But we win this 4x in 5 times, which means we take the pot 4x (4x29USD) and lose 1x (1x29), which make it profitable for us as well.

PS: I was calculating with villain to hold only flush draw (without straight one) and I didn´t count it´s 3 way. I also didn´t involve possible river play, where pot would probably get bigger.
