Final Board: 5 7 J 3 A
Hero mucked Q J and lost (-542 net)

Both opponents are regs
SB 21/19/1.7 2.2k hands 3bet vs hero EP 7% 27 hands
BB 23/18/1.3 11k hands

My plan when flatting 3way IP is to stack of with 2pair plus or monster draw or go cautiously with 1 pair or a weak draw, counting on some freecards IP

I do get the feeling that i am behind BB's range but the price is great, and he could maybe be blockbetting J9s/JTs the same way, so couldnt really find the fold button on all 3 streets.

I'd fold pre, both their ranges are strong. IMO they don't have any JTs, J9s in their ranges, maybe once in a while?

As played, for this price I guess I'm calling too, 99 and TT might be possible.

definitely a call pre IP getting odds 75bbs deep. but you should be cautious vs their ranges.

BB range is particularly strong but his sizings and line does confuse me. Is this Jx or some strange way of playing QQ/KK? Would he play a set like this? I doubt it...

I am not folding, just thinking about whether I can get him off better hands by raising or whether it is better to just call down. I doubt he has KJ in his cold flatting range pre. so I think the only hands he has which beat you are AJ/QQ/KK/AA. Would he play QQ/KK/AA like this? probably not. so this really feels like AJ. Can you get him to fold AJ by the river? maybe.. If you decide to try raise him off AJ I think you need to rep a set and raise turn small and overbet shove river.

just checked results and his hand makes sense, same thinking. would he fold if you try rep a set on the turn? maybe...

this spot is so rare, i wouldnt worry too much about it.
