I am folding pf. As played, peel the flop, fold turn UI.

if you think its a squeeze then shove. there are too many crappy turn cards that he would double barrel or connect with.

Im not concerned with CO, the only hands in his range that can beat us and call a shove are 22/99.

Effective stacks are 150BB and if hero calls CO might call as well raising our implied odds. I think a call pf is fine. On this flop I probably peel and fold turn UI like you said though.

If this is a squeeze you have minimal implied odds as there is no guarantee villain is stacking off. I just hate playing these small-mid pocket pairs in 3 bet pots. Took me about 25,000 hands to realize that, but I finally did.
