squeeze play gone wrong

Both players were about 20/14 over about 200 hands. I didn't have any notes on them though. Is checking this flop OK?

I don´t think you folded the best hand. Any reason you bet $3 instead of jamming the bet pot button? Also, I think this was a rr straight up for value pf.

I might lead small here, maybe $3 and try to see the next street cheaply.

standard.

I also lead this flop, and back down to too much aggression.

If you hit your AK, then who knows? What hands do you put UTG+1 on?

To me your fold was standard, but I would have to lead this flop. By not leading the flop, you didn't receive ANY information, maybe UTG+1 also missed the flop, but throw money at it because everyone else showed weakness?
You have an early position raiser that bets a somewhat scary flop; Things were mostly going to get bad for you.

I put UTG+1 on several hands (I dont know how good he is): QJ, JJ, KJ, KQ, QQ, AQ, AJ

Someone please tell me if I'm wrong.

Maybe, maybe not. You'll probably find out though if your opponent wakes up and makes a big bet or raise.

I do at least 4 preflop. Flop is blah, u can lead some of the time I think...

I would've made it >=4 preflop. Stack sized also make a big difference.
