Not sure I took the best line with this hand, though I'm not sure of a better way. UTG in this hand is slightly loose and passive (33/8) and the other villain in MP is ultra LAP (85/7).

SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP calls, CO calls, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, MP calls, CO folds, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, UTG calls, MP calls, SB calls.
<font color="blue"> I plan on checkraising any bet that comes back to me, most likely from the PF raiser in MP. UTG beats him to it and bets out. MP's call tells me I'm most likely ahead of him, as he hasn't been to tricky yet. Any aggression from him later though and I'd be out quickly. After I c/r, I'm not sure how to react to UTG's 3 bet. Because is PFR numbers are so low, I'm not sure how tight his raising standards are. I can likely count out AQ and AK, but AJ and AT are both possibilities as well as some lower A's. A set of 2's is also possible, as his VPIP suggests that he'd play low PP from EP. I decide to cap and bet out again, intending to fold to a raise if unimproved on the turn. I figure this gets me some extra equity out of the passive MP and hopefully determines if I truly am behind here. </font>

SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls, MP calls, SB calls.
<font color="blue"> His call here suggests I'm still good? Though AJ and AT could certainly just call here as well. </font>

SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls, MP folds, SB calls.
<font color="blue"> Another rag, but still betting out. Good move or too aggro? </font>
Final Pot: 20.50 BB
