UTG+2 is 49/8 with 67% fold to 3bet
MP1 is 13/16
MP2 is 16/8

whats my best line?
1)Just bet big, ship turn
2)Bet small, like 6$ on flop, 7$ on turn, 12$ on river
3)Check-raise all in?

3bet bigger pre?

I dont think it does when original raiser is a huge fish and you could be doing this with a wide range for value and to collect dead money. Bigger sizing also makes it less likey you end up in a 4 way pot OOP as well. It also sets up a nice SPR for your KK as well.

I think 5.50 like alexx said is good size.

The importance of a larger 3b is to not allow people to come along with good pot odds and definitely good implied odds. You should be hoping to get this HU with someone post flop with a good SPR so you can get more value. It's not important to disguise your hand strength in these spots since many will just think you're squeezing or they're too sticky with TT/JJ/AJs+ etc and still won't fold.

Your raise can look like a squeeze and get less credit. This 3bet has to be significantly bigger with an initial raiser and two callers.
