I would like to know what would you do on preflop? is that a standard call or should I squeeze that?

Later on the flop I tried to represent a set, cause I felt like they were weak because of the betsize, do you agree with that line? I only shoved the turn because I got some equity

I think that preflop call is fine. Would maybe be better to squeeze vs 3,5X raise, though. Flop check/raise is most likelly an overplay when multi-way because people tend to be tighter with cbets, so we don't have enough fold equity. I think leading would be better since the hand is probably too weak to check/call. As played, turn shove is fine imo when we hit more equity.

Pre is fine.
OTF I definitely would not raise. And as Alleen said it might be a bit weak to check call too. I still would not lead with this hand, I think it should be just folded.

Preflop call is ok. Flop is....well . Don´t bluff like that, especially at micros. We have only backdoor draws, this is standard fold. As played don´t continue when 2 players called you OTF.

Easy c/f on the flop. Please do not bluff like this, especially with absolutely no equity and against 2 opponents who seem interested in the pot.

Do not try to represent anything at NL2 - they dont care what you might have. You are overthinking and trying to apply some tricks you might have seen on some videos but those wont work with the NL2 player pool.

At the risk of sounding like a parrot: Check-raise bluffing 2 people with air is at least 1.5 people too many. Don't try to justify it with convoluted "they look weak" arguments. You'll only trick yourself.
