Since MP1 is block betting into a huge pot (probably with a whiffed A K or lower pp) and MP2 is smooth calling, I'd trap call looking to extract more on the turn.

I'd probally just call and then pump the turn...use your position and thats a safe board so no cards to be scared about

With a board that dry, youre fairly safe giving a cheap turn card and trying to keep others in the pot.

I dont like slowplaying much, but this looks like a good flop for it.

I didn't 3 bet because its already been raised twice in front of me and usually in that case the re-raiser will have AA or KK from my experience... if I 3 bet and they push all in can I call?? I decided to call and hope to not see any A or K on the flop and ended up hitting my Q... if the A or K flops then I will have an easier time getting out of the hand without losing many chips.. I could be wrong and thats why i'm posting here to figure out the proper play...

Thanks for everyones help!

I would not have reraised pre flop either, and for the same reasons you give.

I call the flop bet. And get all in on turn.
