Pre Flop: (t45) Hero is BB with Q A
UTG calls t30, MP raises to t120, 3 folds, Hero ?

UTG is 36/11/1
MP is 41/22/2
had 28 hands on both

i think there would be "call and reevalute" is the standard, but i dont know how much value we have here oop against 2 loose villains. if we hit TPTK/TPGK that would be pretty easy, but if a random flop comes what we didnt hit should we c.bet here? its seems to be a little spewy. so if we hit we play if not we c/f really the best what we can do here?
fold seems unorthodox but may it could be the right play here?

any thought are welcomed, thanks

call is fine

If you call pre, you cant do a cbet cause you arent the raiser pre. I call pre, c/f if missed and just bet/bet/bet if I hit.

I think we have more than enough of an equity advantage vs the two opponents to play this hand out of position unless we have a read than MP is particularly nitty. I think your model is making a few incorrect assumptions:

- AQo has more value than just hitting a top pair. It makes a nut straight, it has showdown value as an ace high. Oh and it can make 2 strong flush draws on mono boards

- If we miss on the flop, 3-way it's not a cert. that this flop will be c-bet by the preflop raiser. We may get more cards free or even have the chance of showing down our A high. If we have the read than MP is badaggro enough that he will cbet his entire range, we might be able to call on some flops like a dry 422, especially if we have a backdoor flush. Or on like a JJT board or something. OR, if he does cbet 100% then we know we have a lot of implied odds calling preflop because we can get in a nice checkraise when we do hit a pair.

- i'm sure you can fold here an play sngs profitably, but i imagine calling is more profitable against most opponents.

- fwiw we can't c-bet this flop (just a technicality - but we weren't the preflop raiser). I would never consider donk-bluffing if we miss the flop. With a strong ace-high we will probably only fold out worse hands.

sorry for everyone, i missed to post the stats so theyre definitely not nits, UTG is seems to be very loose-passive, MP is more likely loose, maybe not that passive postflop, not sure.
probably not changes too much, just wanted to share every info i have

you called easily call to see a flop with a good hand, but theres still one player behind to act who could reraise so its a bit difficult to hope for a flop here. By the way your hand isnt strong enough to free bet in a situation like so i would recommend folding this one.

Donk betting without hitting the board is very dangerous against 2 unkowns. Try to figure out what there playing style might be and on which level they think.
If you hit tptp on a Q board i would strife for a check-call/check-raise if its a scary board and villian is likely to get it in with worse.
But in a mwp i would probably open with a bet because with a check raise you must investe to many chips what you actually want to avoid at this stage.
