UTG1 - EP RFI 11, EP fold to 3bet 68%
MP1 - 3bet vs EP 3%, fold/call/5bet oop vs 4bet 63/19/18
CO - agressive fish 50/17 agg% 35

I am not sure about my preflop play. Squeez or rather call? Sizing is ok?
Against 5-bet from UTG1 or MP1 probably easy fold?

Poker Stars $0.25/$0.50 No Limit Hold'em - 8 players
MP1: $51.84
MP2: $55.85
CO: $50.00
Hero (BTN): $50.00
SB: $20.00
BB: $97.86
UTG: $20.00
UTG+1: $23.51

Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is BTN with Q :club: Q :diamond:
1 fold, UTG+1 raises to $1.10, MP1 raises to $3.50, 1 fold, CO calls $3.50, Hero raises to $7.75, 3 folds, MP1 calls $4.25, CO calls $4.25

Flop: ($25.10) 6 :spade: 2 :heart: 2 :club: (3 players)
MP1 checks, CO bets $15.50, Hero calls $15.50, MP1 folds

Turn: ($56.10) 9 :club: (2 players)
CO bets $26.75 all in, Hero calls $26.75 all in

River: ($109.60) J :heart: (2 players - 2 are all in)

Hey Ted,

Preflop is a call or fold, not a 4bet, that's for sure imo. UTG is already tight plus MP doesn't 3bet trash there so by 4betting you only force worse hands out. By 4betting you also force CO outof the pot which is the only very fishy player.

I think fold will be too nitty in this spot, I still have good implied odds for call. But I do not think I will be able to play this hand profitably against 3 players if I do not hit and board will be low. So I chose in my opinion "easiest" way: 4bet as bluff against MP1 and for isolation with fish with quite low sizing (10 or 7.75 will have same fold equity I guess).

Bluff MP1 off what? He only has the nuts basically.

AK - 16 combos, QQ 1 - combos, I think he can fold these hands against my cold 4bet.

Erhm, quite ambitious to say the least.. That is because he most often doesn't even have those hands in his 3betting range against a 11% UTG RFI with 68% Fold vs 3bet.

I thought that his 3bet range will be depolarized (QQ+, AK) or maybe bit wider (maybe some JJ, AQs). So if his range is only AA and KK and some bluffs, then call preflop give me much more sence.

Think about it: 3% vs EP, polarised and QQ+, AK is 2.6% therefore 3% for HEM. Either he always 3bets those and he actually isn't polarised and you have no FE or he doesn't 3bet QQ, AK (the bottom of that range) and is polarised but with KK+ and other hands that are too weak to call.
