1/3, V1: $300, V2: $150, H: $500, V3: $500

V1 limps EP, V2 limps CO, H looks at AKo in SB

Normally, I'd go $20 here but playing hundreds of hours with both of these weak-tight nitty regs, I'm 100% confident both of them are folding to that size. Also, I'm not worried about being OOP vs them as they're folding to cbets/double-barrels a huge amount of the time.

H raises to $16, V3 in BB calls, V1 folds, V2 calls

3-way to the flop..

FLOP ($51): A84cc
H bets $25, V3 calls, V2 calls

Pretty dry board, I know I can go higher since Ax is never folding to one bet but whatever. Fairly confident, I'm up against Ax and a flush draw/set of 4s given how both of them play, respectively.

TURN ($126): Jx
H bets $65, V3 calls, V2 calls

Could go higher again, but kinda pot-controlling vs V3. Rule out 4s from V2's range, he always has a FD here now. V3's range looks like AQ or something, since I expect him to fold worse Ax. However, I'm bothered about AJ here. He could also have a FD but idk. Also note that I'm sizing smaller because I'm bet/folding each street vs these guys

RIVER ($321): 4x
H ???

Nice card for me. Not bothered about V2 anymore since he has only $50 left, but now I'm debating whether I should go for thin value or check vs V2. He's been nitty too and based on my image/hands I've shown down so far, he's not paying off a huge bet even with AQ but he'll surely call something small like $50. I'm also toast against AJ or maybe something better that slowplayed.

I know some of you will insist shoving river for fat value and stuff, but against these mubsy players, I know I'm just crushed when they call.

what were the suit distributions of your hand/the board

As long as we're confident none of these guys is going to outplay postflop, I'm okish with the raise. I'd still probably go $20 just to target the smallish $150 stack a little bit more and make it very unprofitable for him to ~setmine. But I just see a flop here a lot too. Some will say that misses huge value, but I'm not convinced of that.

The tricky thing about making the small SPR against V2 is that it is likely we won't be able to get away from TP, and yet he got 12:1 implied odds preflop (not absolutely horrendous).

The drier the board, the more I sometimes just check here. It does contain a flush draw, so I'm cool with betting too. Also like keeping it on the small side and then evaluating.

Kinda weird spot on turn in that we're fully committed against V2 (where we have < PSB left) and yet aren't committed against V1. Tough spot cuz you'd like to bet PSB against V2, and yet can't really do that against V1. Again, I think I'm ok with the bet size (especially against kinda bad card).

I'd probably just target V2's stack on the river and put that amount in. If V1 raises, we exit.

On one hand I think the hand is fine, on the other I'm still not thrilled with the resulting size of the pot (fricken huge) multiway on the river, especially if we have a nitty image (I mean, we just raised out of the blinds and continued firing into 2 opponents on two postflop streets, gee, I wonder what we have).

Depends on how good of a hand reader I think V3 is and how willing he is to take advantage of situations. Most cases just b/f about $110 and hoping he calls off with AQ or AT.

Hero block-bets $50 OTR. V3 calls. V2 folds.

V3 shows AJo. Says he thought I had AA.

V3 sucks preflop, but played it very nicely postflop (imo). He never gives us the opportunity to bet/fold our hand (perfect play in position, letting us spew chips into him on each street), plus he lets shortstack guy behind him come along with whatever crap he has (if the shortstack binks a miracle, whatever).

Also notice how face up our hand is here range-wise. He MUBSyily had us on the very top of our range, but mostly he knew this was AA or AK/AQ (and even AQ might be debatable).

Playing our hand face up OOP is likely not going to be very profitable against anyone other than complete ******s (although admittedly it would have been very interesting to see how V3 played hand if he only hit Ax on the flop).
