because like 9 times out of 10 at least one of them is calling down with an UI A high? I was planning on checking and calling but with the overcall it became a different decision.

your check/call plan.. who are you hoping bets, and with what?

Once you check, you need to be folding in this spot. If you're calling here you should've bet the river. Checking with the intention of:

a) Folding here,
b) Calling if it's checked to the button and he bets, and
c) Probably folding if UTG+1 bets and button folds,

may be an okay play. However, I think UTG+1 has QJ/KQ/KJ enough that getting more value out of your hand with a river bet, folding to a raise, is good. I don't think you get bluffraised in a 3-handed pot really ever.
