First villain is a 14/11/2.8 aggressive rock sample 143 hands
Second is a tad loose 21/13/1.4 sample 77 hands

I can't help but think I didn't play this hand as optimally as I could have. I have the 3rd nuts on the flop (10J is very unlikely however). I decide to check preflop and that is where I think my mistake was.

Here's my thoughts : villain one raised preflop and villain 2 called, I then 3bet and villain 1 and 2 calls. The flop gives me a Q and I should raise here for value vs AQ+, FDs and 99+ except for KK, which already beats me.

Am I right in my own review of the hand ? I'm just beginning to look at my hand histories and see where I value bet and where I should have. I'm wondering if I'm doing it the correct way and If my thoughts on value are ok.

If not feel free to correct cause I really want to learn how to become better at this game,

TIA,

ARU

pf, I generally raise more when I 3bet, to around $3 here I think.

The flop is super-drawy. You really need to bet the flop, there are a lot of worse hands that will call, close to pot.

I don't know...i am getting very afraid of the suck out...so, i think i bet the hell out of the flop in a 3-way pot. You have to give the drawing hands terrible odds to call and hope AK stays with you.

you 3 bet pre flop and hit your set.. why check? bet out now and dont give free cards.. i like your bet on the turn but i would have bet this flop like you did the turn... interesting hand and very drawy board for sure, thats why i say to bet the flop and make draws pay for cards.
