I just sat down about 10 hands ago, the table is all from the night before and is playing very very slow. Dealer is having trouble keeping the action flowing.

Villian 1 UTG: (stack 185)Has entire laptop on table, beats head phones, barely paying attention to the game. However, in the last 10 hands he's shoved his 150.00 stack twice on the flop, both overbets. Seems angry.

Hero: UTG +1 (stack 425) Just won the previous hand with AK making broadway against different villains. Not sure if anyone at all even saw the hand.

Villian 2: (hero's immediate left stack 600+) seems really really tired, also may be drunk as he has an empty beer bottle and has asked for cocktails 3 times within 15 minutes. Vpip 90%, never raising only calling raises or limps pre.

OTTH:
Straddle on button, both blinds call 5. Villian 1 raises to 15. Hero (KK) raises to 45. V2 snap calls, V1 calls quickly.

Flop 10c, 6c, 2s

V1: bets 75. Hero: tanks, while tanking villain 2 announces all-in. Dealer informs him its Hero's turn.

Dealer calls floor, explains the situation, Floor announces that its my action and I literally don't know what to do. I ask if I call the bet does it change the v2's action. Floor announces v2's action stands unless I change the action by raising....

So if I call the 75, should I be prepared to call off my stack? Orrrrrrrr?

Sorry weird action, and I've never been in this spot before.

Call the 45 and then call the shove. Almost 100% of time live in a situation like this you're good. It's 1/3 right?

Any read on what V1 looked like after V2 took their turn OOP? Annoyed, happy, neutral or anything like that?

V2 can have sets, draws, and JJ+. V1 I am slightly nervous about, but I don't think they have AA too often, as I see that 4 betting you, especially with V2s snap call to your raise pre. As played, I feel like this is another call and close your eyes moment. Never folding given a tilt and potential drunk making plays.

Yeah I’m not folding to beats by Dre and a drunk on T62 with SPR under 3 when holding KK

Call and then see how much V2 complains about the ruling for entertainment purposes. Calling all in.

Raise bigger pre, to around 60. At spr 3 in a 3b pot this is a standard stack off, achieved by saying call, waiting for V1, and saying call again

folding in this spot means you hate money and want to make the baby Jesus cry.
besides if the gods of fortune favor these two villians over you it just an oh well ride on the variance roller coaster

Gotta agree. This is a trivial flat and call the AI. Expect to see a fair number of flush draws, as well as some Tx from V2. I would think that JJ-QQ from V1 makes sense as well. Decent chance you get a triple up.

Whatever you do, don't fold here.

Easy call. Most good players UTG would likely fold to V2's all in knowing you called knowing that V2 had already declared himself all in. If V1 and you were both very deep and V1 called i might be worried he was trapping. But he should fold most of his hands. That said, most weak players especially with AK or AJ will likely make this call. Just cross your fingers an ace doesn't hit the turn or river. Or another J. Likely only loosing to seven outs here. Lets say one player has QQ and the other has AJ. That is seven outs x two draws which is 30 percent to get drawn out on. So your getting 2:1 on your call and your a 2:1 favorite to win at worst. If you ran into AA you still have two outs to win. Just bad luck but your more likely to loose to JT who hits a T on the river than you are to be up against AA. If lucky you may be up against AT and AJ.

sorry i posted my un-edited reply by mistake. Thought flop was J high so change AJ to AT and so on. Also added good players will not usually shove with flush draw that only fills one out of three times unless they are last to act and getting pot odds to do so. But even if up against a flush draw it still doesn't change your percentage to win by much. I wouldn't be too worried about flush draws against strong players. They will mostly have pairs and be shoving to get you off your draws. However with bad players the opposite is often true.

How is a laptop on the table? Nothing should be on the table that can cover a card.

Why would you just straddle for $5? Better to not do it or make it an actual bet.
