This is the hand history

SB ($1.93)
BB ($2)
UTG ($3.30)
MP1 ($2)

, 7
, K
(4 players)
UTG bets $0.43, MP1 raises to $1.90 (All-In), Hero raises to $6.73 (All-In), Button calls $2.88 (All-In), 1 fold
Turn: ($8.52) 5
(3 players, 3 all-in)
River: ($8.52) 6
(3 players, 3 all-in)
Total pot: $8.52 | Rake: $0.56
UTG bets a high amount... Maybe had a good hand like pocket aces but UTG folded once people went all-in (probably because he figured someone else would have 3 of a kind)
Now why MP1 raised all-in with QQ still baffles me too, but BU actually made a good call because I could have K with a lower kicker and an A would have beaten my full house
Equilator tells me the following with the flop known:
QQ had 8% chance of winning
77 had 68%
AK 24%
So i figure my odds weren't bad at all in comparison to BU's AK
