UTG - UTG (T246,401) 16/8 24 hands
UTG+1 - UTG+1 (T41,562)

SB - Hero (T230,397)
BB - BB (T277,710)
Preflop: (T11,500, 8 players) Hero is SB with A♠ K♦
UTG raises to T11,899, 2 folds, MP2 calls T11,899, 1 fold, BTN calls T11,899, Hero???
If I 3bet 3x the raise plus 1x for each caller, my 3bet size would be 60,000. If one player calls and the other 2 fold, the pot on the flop will be around 155,000. My remaining stack will be 167,000.
On flop I will be OOP and if I miss the flop I will be unhappy, especially if there is more than 1 villain.
What is the best option here? With this much action in front of me, I am leaning toward just shoving to pick up a sizeable pot (47,000) preflop.
Also I wonder what is the best play if I am holding QQ here? Shove?
Spoiler
Hero raises to T229,897 (all-in), 4 folds, Uncalled bet of T217,998 returned to Hero
Total Pot: T56,596
Hero wins T56,596
