tough without reads. What happened to UTG+1?

I would play it the same way. Looks like someone got a set or two pair on the river. Or someone was slow playing a set. Without reads you have to call down on the river because the pot is so big, and for information on the fish calling with 97s.

I think you can save yourself a BB on the river and fold to MP2's 3-bet.

You have been aggressive the entire hand and now MP1 and MP2 bet and raise into you? Even without reads I think you can safely fold this hand and save yourself the bets.

It is very possible that, if you cold call, it will be three-bet or capped coming back to you.

Fold it.

Huh, maybe that's why I'm spewing. Since it's Party i call down. I won't like, and I think going to lose, but I've seen so much donking, and misplaced aggression. I've folded better hands only to see the outcome and be amazed someone was capping middle pair when a flush and a straight was on the board. Also if I had a good read on either MP2 or MP3 I could make a fold if they are soild players.

Are you suggesting that at a Crypto site or PokerStars you would've folded? You should be basing your decisions on the players - not the site. In the absence of reads on the players your default lines should also not be site specific.
