I think preflop and flop are really standard. Do you call 2 back to you on the flop with TPTK?

On the turn, Do you give up getting 21.5 to 2 with a potential reraise behind you?

Muck. One of them can obviously beat TPTK

I angrily fold here. MP1 check/3-bet your ass on the flop, he ain't foolin around.

With the flop action, I'd be concerned. I'd put MP1 on most likely two pair and discount a set of aces since you're holding one and there's one on the board. MP3 comes alive after the flop so I'd be asking myself if he has a set 6's or 7's. With two more back to me, I'd be thinking I need runner runner to win and the pot odds aren't there.

If these guys weren't such huge donkeys I think I could find a fold on the turn. But I think I call and hope MP1 slows down.

i would normally fold. It looks that only A on the river helps me and I have smth. like 7-8 to 1 only (reraise now is possible, but if A falls, it will probably scare pocket pairs bettors). What is
37/15/1.9 please? i didnot find it in FAQ.

perflop % / ? / agressivness? what is in the middle?

That's what was going through my mind on the turn. They are both pretty LAG. I am pretty sure that I am behind. But we've all had those hands where 2 donkeys just go crazy and think their JJ and AT are good on this board. I get SO pissed when I fold those hands.

Edit: I guess I shoud check the turn card before I post hypothetical hands. AT is pretty good and better than AKs at this point.

Especially in a pot this size, when you still have tons of outs to beat any two pair hand, I think I would be hard pressed to fold against these opponents.

Im thinking the best you can do on this one is split the pot.

/me as poker newbie would fold.

I think there is a good change you will beat mp1 (preflop suggests something he likes, perhaps AQ or KK or something a bit worse.).

MP3 is however more a problem. I think there is a reasonable change that your up against a set and even when u hit another A or K that won't be enough to beat it. Another K gives u just 2Pair and another aces gives your opponent possible a fullhouse).

Besides that; even if your up against something like 2pair you will probably need to pay a lot for it. It doesn't seem like MP1 and MP3 are going to slow down. So to check if TPTK is good enough you will have to pay 2 much.
