    Default Multiway pots still confuse me

    UTG player is a fish with 52/15 stats so I wasn't really sure what kind of hands he opens, if he's positionally aware 3bing is kind of bad
    BB is a reg

    I can't really pokerstove this because there are different stack sizes
    that said, I probably don't want to get this in
    should I be folding to the minraise? looks like he has me crushed and wants me to put in additional money bad and I'll just be spewing between two people with better equity
    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero (Button) ($103.50)
    SB ($116.90)
    BB ($179.80)
    UTG ($35.50)
    MP ($176.85)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with A, Q
    UTG bets $2, 1 fold, Hero calls $2, SB calls $1.50, BB calls $1

    Flop: ($8) 8, Q, J (4 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, UTG bets $2, Hero raises to $9, 1 fold, BB calls $9, UTG raises to $16, Hero calls $7, BB raises to $177.80 (All-In), UTG calls $17.50 (All-In), Hero folds

    I think folding to the minraise is better.

    You don't like getting it in on the flop, you hate a lot of turn cards and really even on a total blank you don't like a big turn bet.

    I'd still iso ore and men get it in pre too. Calling is okay. Id prob shove after fish reraises flop to iso again.

    shoving is lol bad because he has two pair+ every time after he minraises here, he just wanted to re-open the betting so one of us could shove
    unless I have the read that he plays top pair like the nuts of course

    there are like no ranges you can assign to the fish and the reg that would put us ahead here

    I think reg folds a huge amount
    other than the 5% of the time when he calls and we're screwed
    but getting that fold is immaterial if we only win the pot maybe 1/3 of the time against the fish

    no, but his minraise should have told me he has two pair or better because he sure isn't bluffing with that bet sizing

    This hand tilts me a lot. Isolate fish all day preflop. Postflop, I don't mind the flop raise given the donks bet sizing, but after you're cold called by the reg you're in all sorts of trouble. I probably raise flop harder, this isn't a board you want to be messing around with and you'd rather donk just jam. Prob make it around 12.

    Flatting the fishes 3bet on flop seems ok, cause raising will get us owned by the reg a lot. Once reg comes over top, I don't see how we can continue here.

    Reg can have tonssss of huge hands here, cold calling the flop raise to keep the fish in. Fold for sure.
