I 3bettet preflop for value against the fishes and to thin out the field a little so also a bluff. The flop came pretty good. Qxx. So I fired a c-bet, is this correct? And how to play river after the turn check back of villain and now overshoving it?

You only have a small sample on MP but his pre flop stats looks like he is aggressive. Against this type of player your small river bet will only induce him to raise because you look weak. This looks like a bluff to me but I don't think you can catch it. I think check call would have been better.

Villains dont bluff that light on the river and since I have third pair. My pair is 3rd after trips and king x. Since the flop action I prefer folding on the river so i guess I might have been bluffing on the river then. Didnt know that.

Pre-flop squeeze is ok. Flop I would bet 2-3/3-4 of the pot. In multiway like this is 20BB too small. OTT I would keep betting and might check the river. I would fold to his shove.

Fine, except river bet. Is it for value? Is it a bluff? Is it a block bet? If the latter, it is too small, and a bigger block bet is too expensive. Check river, and just give up. He is in position and have the upper hand here. Little to do if he decides to steal the pot.

(Such is life OOP when deep in big pots)

Might be that it is partly mental game issue that played a role. Not wanted to have ruined my hand on the turn and then decided to go for some small blocking bet on the river. I dont think I am ahead of the calling range here.

thats when OOP sucks. I like the raise pre, but posflop seems really hard to call otr. Agree x/c would be a bit better.
