Looking at it now I see it as an easy fold. In the moment I tank reshoved and UTG +1 snap called. UTG+1 shows 89o and button shows QJo.
Side note. Playing 1/3 live I very frustrating, it's very tough to get average hands to fold. Earlier in the day I opened KsKc for 21 and got 3 callers. Flop was Js7s4h, I lead for 30 and CO makes it 85, I suspected he had AJ or a set and was scared of flush draw, I tank shove for 189 more and he calls with Q7s...

Correction, flop was Js8s4h, excuse my sloppy posting, newbie here.
We got 5 callers, the first one starts a cascade of callers.
We should go 25 at least if we are raising UTG.
It's live poker, someone will probably call.
I disagree. Unless the game is crazy, $17 is perfectly fine UTG (almost 6x the BB). It's even on the higher end. $25 screams AA.
OP, when you get called by two players on a paired flop and the turn card completes a straight, you should definitely fold unless both callers are drunk and have been showing junk cards at showdown.
