If I limp preflop/no raise, I would die seeing this flop!

I am interested why you would 3 bet in that spot. You have position, a hand you definitely want to see a flop with. Thoughts?

that was a good fold, but I think that 3bet was not so god becouse you was last to act, so you lost some chips for nothing ;)

That was a smart fold, a lot of people would not get away from that hand from the button. I would think that the UTG bettor had a semi-strong hand and I would have also 3 betted to get a better read on him, maybe not 4X his bet, but that's the call you made and I respect it. I really like that you had the discipline to fold when the SB pushed and then was called. You had to know you were beat in at least one spot and probably both, and if not both, then dominated in one and a coin flip to the other. You recognized that you were not in a good position to win, and if you call the initial raise and the SB calls too, then you are in a worse spot because you flopped top pair and would have been crushed by the aces, and the AK may even have come along for the ride. Good move on your part!

3bet is fine here lol. just want to make the sizing much, much smaller here. He raises to 800, so maybe 2k would suffice.

You can also call, but people above saying it's bad, would not have said that if they didn't know the SB was going to get it in, which is why it's best to post hand histories with results covered.

As played obv folding once two players have gone all in, but you wasted over 1k chips here by making your sizing bigger than it had to be.

It's only your assumption,without stats on villain difficult to say something in this situation, if villain have stats like 8/8 or 30/0 we need only to call and 3bet would be a big mistake...

Its no point to re-raise after 4bet, you have good position after preflop, so its right to see flop cheaply, and AQ is not so strong hand as you think, its underdog vs any pair and AK

i would have done the same thing that you did folding preflop allin by two villians as you too hold the suited AQ, which i think is best cards to bet on but preflop allin that situation is complete no as they possess AK,KK,AA,QQ.

that 3-bet was good but needed to be a bit smaller as said above. when both these players decide to get it all in then you know your AQ is no good and need to get out of the way

yes.... but you misread what i'm saying. I said both 3betting and calling can be good (even though i wrote it poorly). without info it's impossible to answer this without being very vague, but since people insist on not posting hands correctly, then what can you do but post random shitty answers?

Agree for the fold but not the 3bet.

If you just call, the AK will reraise anyway and we will be sandwiched and same for us to fold.
