This was Sh so MP2 was actually UTG. His raise is perceived to be strong and I didn't want to 3b to face a 4b or isolate myself against KKs or AAs.
As played, I decided to go for pot control on flop and river. Initial plan was to c/c if blank came and maybe also a smallish bet if scare card dropped.
Ace on the river and I decided to 3b/f if he shoves.
Is the play alright?
