anyone get more aggro on flop? Is turn bet OK? My reasoning for just calling flop was to try and get money in from the other two guys

I would raise the flop to 60 because it looks like you are just challenging their c-bet with position.

If he calls and you 1/2 pot the turn your hand doesn't look as strong as it is, and it's easy to get the rest in on the river.

i don't like check calling with 2 players behind you, i would either have bet out $40 or $45, or check with the intention of raising to at least $100. I like a PSB or all in on the turn.

I like the way you played this. Not much you can do if your opponent has Ace high, he is not paying off anything.

Call behind on the flop hoping somebody's got AJ, T9, etc. On the blank turn this looks like a miss so you've got to try to get some money out there. Hopefully this is not a c/r trap. I call the flop because I'd like to see if I can find another caller. When I hit bottom set either nobody has a hand or I'm up against set over set. Better to win a small pot.

There aren't any draws, with that action you are usually getting folds or a push.

That's why I would rather try to get a call on the flop instead of hoping for him to catch on the turn and insta folding to any blank.

Based on the preflop action I doubt UTG or MP2 has AJ or T9, so you are gambling that MP1 has something instead of trying to extract more from MP2 who has shown interest.

Since when does a minraise in a multiway reraised pot not look at all strong?

When there is a bet in front of you your only options are to fold, call, or raise. Checking and betting are impossible.
