SB: $21.59 (215.9 bb)
BB: $9.85 (98.5 bb)
Hero (UTG): $10.42 (104.2 bb)
MP: $7.57 (75.7 bb)
CO: $15.24 (152.4 bb)
BTN: $12.49 (124.9 bb)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K Q
Hero raises to $0.30, MP folds, CO calls $0.30, 2 folds, BB calls $0.20

Flop: ($0.95) J K 4 (3 players)
BB bets $0.45, Hero calls $0.45, CO calls $0.45

Turn: ($2.30) T (3 players)
BB checks, Hero checks, CO bets $1.76, BB calls $1.76, Hero calls $1.76

River: ($7.58) 9 (3 players)
BB checks, Hero checks, CO bets $12.73 and is all-in, BB folds, Hero not sure

Preflop: My default open.

Flop: Hit TP so was planning to cbet, but then the BB donked. I surely don't want to fold and raising would be an overplay imo, so I called. What about raise/folding, anyway?

Turn: I hit OESD and the BB checked. Not sure if I should bet there. I still don't like the pot to be big because I'm not very thrilled with my hand, but check/folding is also out of the question. I decided to check/call, hoping that the CO will check back. Should I bet/call or maybe bet/fold instead? (I really don't like bet/folding in this spot)

River: Hit OESD and only AQ beats me. The problem is that I think I'm splitting the pot at best. Decided to check and really wasn't sure what to do vs CO's shove.

BB: 43/0/7 (VPIP/PFR/H)
CO: 20/19/8,0/106 (VPIP/PFR/AF/H)

You are on your own:D

Seriously, principles clash here. We have the nut bluff catcher -> call. We are also calling very often for a split at best -> fold. On balance, he bets big into two people and you get bad odds, so I'd personally fold. But I don't blame anyone for calling because sometimes you must call with the nut bluff catcher.

Well, sometimes he will have AQ but still calling is not a deadly sin.

Calling 13 for 3,50. Leave it to him.

Ugh. I probably call and hate myself.

The rake is the long-term winner in this spot.

I would raise flop against the fish, KQ is strong enough. If he 3bets, easy fold but this will happen very rarely.
On the turn check seems fine and after the huge bet it's not so clear. You have between 20 and 25% equity against the ranges I tried for CO and you will be OOP on the river... Seems like calling would require very accurate play on the river.
When we hit the river I prefer donking for value against the fish because CO will just check back his two pairs/sets. As played, snapfold after the shove, he has AQ too often.

I would raise his donk otr. As played we can fold but calling is not wrong.
