You have to fold the turn, mainly because both villains are shortstacks. I might even check the flop due to that.

Semibluffing into the preflop raiser and a caller is a bit dicey, but not necessarily bad. I would've check-raised instead as that is more likely what TP+ would do, and in this situation is more likely to get some more dead money in the pot. On the turn Hero has FD+gutshot and is getting better than the pot odds needed to call. 'Nuff said.

preflop is a fold for me. Out of position, raiser is short stacked. UTG may have reraised.
Flop is a check, or at most a $2 bet, I may call up to say $5 if bet/raised to by UTG + 1 if I felt I could get his stack if we hit our flush on the turn.
Turn is a fold - we only have up to our 9 flush cards for a possible win. An all in push (guaranteeing UTG+1's stack) does not give us our odds.

I was hoping one or both of the bigger stacks would follow me in, preflop. Suited connectors are good cards to win stacks with.
On the turn, I figured I had 12 outs (straight + gutshot) and I was getting 3.6 to 1 from the pot. A little better than I need to call, I thought. I also thought my c-bet might disguise my flush if I caught it.

i dun like leading flop in a multiway pot with this kind of board cuz bet/folding really sucks when you may even have 40% equity here.

pf is debatable at best -- especially because you're short stacked. You wanna play suited connectors? Play with a full stack. Then the small bet pf of your opponent becomes a big mistake for them when you call.

Flop donk is really questionable. Again, you have a short stack -- not much room to maneuver if you get called. This flop is really likely to have hit someone pf.

Oh, and I just noticed. FR is down the street. Play 6max anyway. (I'm going to turn this into a little mantra soon. Gotta think of something catchy.)

$10 to win $36 (1-3.5) and we have 13 outs (1-3.5)

Calling and folding are like meh - whatever.
Why the [censored] are you playing short stacked?
And why would you ever play sc's oop to a raise pf while short stacked?
