I call down. The K, unfortunately, is all over his raising range, which makes this kind of a gross spot.

We don't need to raise to protect our hand. If the third player is behind, he's drawing very thin. So I see no need to drive him out with a raise.

It's not technically wa/wb (since there's a third player in the pot), but I take that line anyway vs. UTG+1's donk.

Raise. The pot is big and you want to protect your hand.

Protect from what ?

[/ QUOTE ]
SDs, gutshots mostly, I think, like JT, AT, AJ, T9.

However, I think I'd play this passively.

We are almost dead vs a K here, relying on back doors, but get some value if UTG1 is willing to bet this for us with a worse Q.

So, no need to pump the pot as we can very far behind. If we're ahead e.g vs another Q, villains do not have many outs.

We could protect the pot vs gutshots by raising but if we get raised we're toast and should probably peel in the small hope our BDFD gets there...

Do we have a safe fold on the turn UI if UTG1 with 20/13/2 stats 3-bets the flop and we peel?

Another Q is just as likely as is K-trips, there's two Ks and Qs uncounted for.

It's kind of unusual to just call the flop with a third guy involved in the hand, but I just want to get this hand to showdown without spewing off a bunch of chips to a K.
