I think a turn raise is best here. If he reraises, call down ... If he only calls a turn raise, lead out. If he raises the river, call down.

"wow" as in putting in 3 BB's on the turn here is really bad. Calling a river raise especially after he c/raises the turn is really bad. Raising the turn seems bad to me as well considering he isn't good that often really and when he is his opponents likely have a combined 15+ outs.

I 3-bet preflop as you would like this to be as shorthanded as possible. BB will almost certainly fold if you 3-bet and the 14/8 UTG1 will also likely fold a fair share of his range to a 3-bet.

As for the postflop play I actually don't see any other way to really play this after UTG1 donks the flop. Donking the turn might be best, but your line seems fine although I think this is a case that the c/c, c/c, bet/fold is best.

Hell Yeah!

My plan for the hand:

1. Check the flop, planning to raise a bet from late position.

2. If a bet comes from early position, I'm calling the flop and donking any undercard turn.



As for pre-flop, I don't think three-betting is necessary. Often it will only get us in a bloated pot out of position against like 3 opponents, which is a bad position. I like taking the overlay on my set outs and maintaining my check-raising privileges.

I also vote for a turn donk.
The river is kind of a weird spot because there are a considerable number of "solid" postflop players who will inexplicably bet OC's on the river, so it'd be tough to check/fold and check/call kinda sucks as well so I think I like the bet given the way you played the other streets.
