1/2 $200 effective
V1 - Loose preflop, but it's not necessarily aggressive or passive. He is capable of raising rags just as much as raising premiums. He folds more than the other crazies in any game, but he still has some glaring leaks in his game - he'll limp call raises with trash hands (suited gappers, etc) to try and smash flops. Post he is capable of making bluffs, but they generally come in the form of 3 barrels. Him and I have a huge dynamic because we have played for years and are best friends. For the most part (99%) of the time he is playing me straight up. Like I don't expect him to get out of line against me. He may have a bluff from time to time, but it's not often enough.
V2 - Weird aggro stationy guy. He is not afraid to hero call, and will do so quite often. He calls raises pre way too wide. He really likes being in the action and making hands.
V3 - Typical loose pre. Will limp call raises a ton with just about all of his limping range which is wide. I have seen him take non 3bet lines pre with premium hands, but this is to be trappy not passive. He takes weird c/call flop, donk turn lines. He plays so abnormally that one will value own themselves against him at times. I don't expect him to call big bets post with air or some draws, although there are times where he will just go with the draw and try to get there. He will call some decent sized bets with TPGK hands.
Hero - Seen as probably over-aggro to the table as I have been raising a ton of hands. In fact at this game everyone thinks I am over-aggro. V is somewhat new to the table tonight, but we have played plenty in the past. I think he views me as good, but not like out of this world good or anything. Everyone knows I am capable of bluffing and what not.

On the 3bet. I expect it to go heads up and I am IP against a guy who I have a TON of FE against. If he c/calls or donks flop I can play perfectly against him. Like I should be 3betting him without looking at my cards most times. Generally raises get little to no "respect" in this game, but 3bets narrows down people's calling ranges and I can expect it to go HU most times IMO.
When I get called by all 3 I am for sure looking to flop gin now, or if I think it's a relatively dry board I maybe can take a stab. My 3bet range shouldn't be too wide in their minds (if they are thinking that), unlike my raising range which they probably think is FOS. Then again, preflop most of them are thinking about Vegas and the effing Mirage.
