Raise is fine, obv flop shove is terrible. I would bet/get in it v SB if MP got out the way (as SB is committed) but if MP flats it's time to give up unless we improve ofc. Shoving pre would also be bad.
It depends on the players, but having no reads I guess opening is fine. Like someone said if they have been flatting a lot, open jam would work. Actually you are calling the 3 three shortstacks anyway when you open 2x, the problem is the other three guys.
I wonder whether cbeting on the flop is good, I mean it misses a lot of MP2 range, but there is the sb. Jamming on the flop seems weaker than cbeting and the worst option imo. I think MP2 most likely hands are premiums, broadways.
Just saw the spoiler, MP2 picked up on your move otf. Cbet probably wouldnt work on this situation either, since he is most likely calling there. But maybe this is the best option? Hard to tell since we dont know if he is calling this board with overcards.
would you please explain the intention of the betsize?
maybe as a blocking bet? making him call with almost any hand that did not hit the board and not making it expensive to you as would be if you just checked and he bet. that is the only reason for that bet I can see, even though it is very exploitable vs a good player.
