Someone wanna be a nice person and walk me through this hand?

I did 4-bet preflop, but to make it simple we went to the flop 3 handed.

SB (59/9/1.4; 41%) over 85 hands

UTG (84/8/1.4; 45%) over 50 hands


poker stars, $0.02/$0.05 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 9 Players

SB: $4.17 (83.4 bb)
Hero (BB): $5.27 (105.4 bb)
UTG: $6.90 (138 bb)
UTG+1: $9.73 (194.6 bb)
MP1: $6.95 (139 bb)
MP2: $7.42 (148.4 bb)
MP3: $6 (120 bb)
CO: $0.47 (9.4 bb)
BTN: $7.90 (158 bb)

Pre-Flop: Hero is BB with A

MP3 posts BB out of position, UTG raises to $0.10, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 folds, MP3 calls $0.05, 2 folds, SB raises to $0.20, Hero raises...

Make it about $1.30. Those guys are horrible and I'm hoping they're willing to get it AIPF.

Yes I agree anywhere from $1.25 to $1.50 is appropriate. If someone pops you it's fair enough to get it in (you might be flipping) but I would totally expect this raise to just take it down at the flop, and that's fine. One straggler, whatever, you can cbet the flop and win.

Ok, I need to learn how to play AK in cash or grow a set when I do play it.

I'm at work so the rest is from memory...

I pop it up to 1.30. UTG & SB both call

Pot: $4.10

Flop: 7.J.7 (possibly suited, but it doesn't make much difference now)

SB checks to me, I should just shove this board? or am I really only getting called by hands that have me beat right now, seeing as I probably have absolutely no fold equity.

You can't get a much better board to shove on without improving. Yeah, I'd probably just stick it in. I see people fold in spots where they should be committed all the time, so I'm never surprised if they both fold here. Of course I'm not shocked when I get called by pocket 5s either.
