Three handed micro stakes fixed limit O8

I was informed that this was the worst hand my opponent (solid good reg) ever saw.

I said maybe so.

Its three handed, but the way I play three handed is pretty wide.

I limped in the SB, which caps my range as bad, but flop worthy.

Good reg will raise good hands and check random cards.

On the flop, I don't just check fold here, or should I since low is prob no good. But there are turn cards that can help me or hurt him, so I bet the flop, and called his raise.

The rest just plays itself.

So...

Given three handed, is this muckable in the SB? I don't want to get blinded off.

Flop, is this flop a check fold? If not I should bet. Or not?

Turn helps me so much I just check called, should I have bet turn, he will raise for sure.

Is this the worst hand you have ever saw?

No, this is not the worst hand I ever saw. I've seen people play trips from early/middle position, and not just AAA2 or AAA3 but something really crappy like QQQ8. And I once saw a really bad player cold-call a raise in a FR game with 227T—I couldn't figure out what he was hoping would come on the flop.

Your lead on the flop seems misguided to me—Villain is never folding and often raising. The rest of your play seems standard.

When villain raises the flop donk I think hero should consider folding. I also think hero could consider going for a check-raise on the river.

The good ole trips in their hand
Saw one reg call it off with 2223(or 3332) (100+bb) preflop(he still got there lollll)

AAA2 and AAA3 are still decent starting hands, and do well in ai preflops

I agree, flop donk was misguided. As played that bet is burning money.

I see two better ways that I can play the hand.

Pre, still not folding, this was an aggro stretch of 3 handed and the button fold was unusual. I need to play a hand and this is playable if barely.

Raise pre. The BB will fold his very worst stuff, but not often so an open raise should still be the correct play 3 handed.

Flop. If I raise pre and flop this its hard to immediately go into check call mode, but I have to realize that this flop favors his range as well as mine so cbet will not take it down, like ever. So, check call, all i need is 16 percent equity and unless he has a monster, I have that at least that with implied odds. If the hand was flop worthy, this is turn worthy.

Turn. If I check call flop, then a check raise here might be in order. It could, sometimes, win the hand right there, i have either 5, 6 or 8 outs, lets say 7 for the math.

If Pot were 3 Bbets and I have 7 outs my equity needed to check call is 20 percent. I have roughly 16 percent equity.

As played, and in any scenario of better play, the pot will be 4 Bbets and all i need for equity is 16 percent which I do have.
If I have equity to call with, I can c/r this to put all these turn draws in with my turn nutted hands and no one can exploit my turn c/r range by folding or reraising.

So, thank you all for the input.

Raise pre.
Check call flop.
Check raise turn.
Bet river.
