Hi,

UTG has a 30% opening at this position. Both players have a low fold to cbet on 3 bet pot.
Is it ok to check fold the flop or is it better to cbet?

What do you think about the squeez? I think I should have just call.

I think a call might have been better OOP with your hand. Flop doesnt look great for you but Cbet (fold) is still in order. Board just gets worse and worse for your hand imo.

Button will likely call IP, UTG is relatively tight. I would maybe consider a flat but can see why you squeeze. A4hh has good connectivity, AT has possible straight draws. I think if it were Double Suited I would squeeze but being in the BB I would likely flat. Your never going to hit a monster wrap. Although, I feel like leading flop is fine. UTG is tight and is likely to have fewer 9's. It charges spades and protects your hand too.

If button calls I likely give up on turn and river. Bet give up or check give up after squeeze. The issue with this is players understand that you are giving up on semi wet boards when squeezing from BB if your not hitting a set. If they can make a note it will be useful for the future. If you continue it is good for you when you have a made hand or a strong draw.

I think I would continue 1/2 - 2/3rd pot and likely give up turn and river if called.
