Lets say we are playing $1/$2 no limit, and everybody buys in for $200.

The under the gun player calls $2. The UTG + 1 player calls for $2 also. I raise on the button for $10 with Kd Qh.
Both other players call my raise.

The flop is Ks Qh Jc
The pot is now: $33

The UTG player bets $25.
The UTG + 1 player calls.

What is the best course of action?
Should I raise, call, or fold?
Here I am worried about a straight, but I know that my two pair can have great value.

If the UTG + 1 folded instead, what should I do instead?

I like to be aggressive, even when I don't have the nuts. Also, I am not folding big hands.
I would like to know what you think about this? Is it overly aggressive to raise in this situation?
I am definitely not folding here, but if I get raised I would fold.

Thanks guys! :)

Both UTG and UTG + 1 limped prefop and you re - raised to 10BB. Very low probability that either player has KK and QQ as they would have raised them preflop and also you block them.

The hands you are behind are ATs - 4 combos, T9s - 4 combos and pocket JJs with some frequency.

Villain might continue playing with 2 pair and one pair with a draw (AQo, AJo, QTs, JTs and QJs).

I won't fold. But I would proceed passively in a multi way pot.
