I think you played it fine. I'm not investing any more money on this flop, especially when 2 people call my squeeze


with Qh I think you can c/rai
not really sure if you should give up with Q, since I doubt he is flatting there AK, maybe with AQ/AJ
against maniac fold seems better since you really don´t want to c/c flop and turn with your hand

I think the c/f is fine.
COs range includes many Ax hands (he's tight as you say) and even if he called suited connectors 1/4 of them has hit a flush.

BUs range is a lot wider, but he'll still have a ton of combinations with Ax in his range. Additionally he has a lot of offsuit highcards which include a heart half of the time.

So i'd cbet against any of them if this was a HU pot, but 3way i agree that the check is fine.
Once you check and BU bets his range is a lot more weighted towards Ax and high :heart: hands even though he's a maniac.

If you had a Q :heart: i agree with Kaitz that a c/r would be a good play.
By betting you only fold out worse, but by checkraising you catch some of BUs bluffs and still get it in with decent equity vs Ax.
