fold preflop u are likely dominated since u dont have a read. I lead flop a lot here but dont mind the free card but no card will come to get ur opponent to stack off unless they likely beat u unless they have a worse 2 pr. As played I prolly stack off here.

I probably fold pre-flop without knowing anything about the players.

I probably shove here on the flop. Obv. we fear AA and QQ from BB and 77 and 33 from CO but they can easily have other hands like AK, AJ and A7, etc.

I would fold preflop because oop and easy to be dominated. But say we want to play, how about making it $5 preflop? We definitely don't want to play it 3-handed. They fold many hands here: pp smaller than JJ can't call without breaking the 5-10 rule, TT, JJ, QQ would have a hard time calling and so would AK. If one of them pushes it's likely you're beat and it's an easy fold. As played we should bet the pot on the flop or even shove. If one of them shoves over our flop bet we must call because AK is still possible and the pot is way too big for us to fold.
