PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

SB ($1.25)
BB ($6.34)
UTG ($4.63)
Hero (UTG+1) ($2.34)
MP1 ($5.06)
MP2 ($2.24)
CO ($3.28)
Button ($2.97)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with ,
UTG bets $0.08, Hero raises to $0.24, 1 fold, MP2 raises to $2.24 (All-In), 4 folds, UTG raises to $4.63 (All-In), Hero?

Utg is aggro donk, had called a 3-bet from me earlier with KQs.
If MP2 doesn't get involved here, and UTG 4-bets or shoves I call, however MP2 is playing tight over about 50 hands. I don't think QQ does well multiway, but???

Too much action for me with QQ, personally.

Obviously you are either a huge dog, or a great favourite in a 3way pot vs a donk and a tight player.

Given your reraise PF MP2 I would think you have to put him on hands like JJ+, so for me, you've got a 1/3 that you're a huge favourite and a 2/3 that you're a huge dog (him having KK OR AA) unlikely he has QQ but who knows.

What're you stats like btw? So we know what MP2 thinks of you.

Ok, I'm trying to figure out the math here. If I call I triple my investment, so I need at least 34% equity in the hand to make it a +EV play. <--- I think. So to range my opps.
UTG I would say 99+, AQo+
MP2, JJ+, AKo+

That gives me 35%, but if I change MP2 range to QQ+ AKo+, it drops to 32.8%. So it seems to be close, and heavily read dependent. As I did not think I had enough hands with MP2, I folded.
