MP2 is a good player, about 19/14, MP3 is about 30/15 but not too bad postflop.

thoughts? I also planned on raising the turn if MP3 bet the turn.

No way both of them are folding, so you think MP2 capped 88 preflop and mp3 called the river with K high?

MP2 has KK QQ JJ here alot

I doubt he will believed you didnt lead the turn with an Ace after the turn was checked through, therefore he will call. Thats even without considering MP3 in the middle

Nobody's folding anything better than TT, your raise would only be good if it was for value and it's definitely not in this case. If MP3 had folded, I would have made a crying call, but you can't even overcall here, much less raise.

If he's any kind of hand reader he's calling with JJ or QQ or whatever.

You guys don't think MP2 folds his hand 1 out of 6 times when I checkraise two players? I really think I'm most likely ahead of MP3. I really don't see anything he can have that beats me at this point, so I only have to make MP2 fold.

There's a decent chance you're ahead of MP3, but less than 100%. You're raising hoping that both MP2 folds and MP3 has a worse hand. I don't think these 2 events will occur together often enough to be a profitable raise.
