Pre-flop I decide to 3bet because a lot of people called villain's raise. I think here I should either 3bet o fold. I wouldn't like to call here. What do you think?

On the flop we hit TPTK, the pot is already very big and if I bet, I think all worse hands will fold. I also see no reason to bet for protection because we have the Ad and the Qd is on the board so there are almost zero flush draws combinations left that would call my 3bet preflop. The only scary card that could come would be a K. Do you think it would be better to bet here?

On the turn CO bets. I call. he could have only one combo of QQ, some 88, but I don't think he would call that preflop most of the times, maybe he could have KK that he slowplayed. He would bluff a lot here, I think. So I called.

The river goes check check.

Should we call if villain bet the river? I think I should fold most of the time.

If you squeeze that hand it's because you mean business and are ready to get it in on those kind of favorable runouts dude.

OTF hecking is tricky and not the most standard line but why not. It's clearly some kind of slowplay though. You are ready to call a shove and all.
I'd bet small OTF but whatever, as played I'd bet small OTT at least.

That's robin for you... can't do anything without batman :coolface:

I'd fold pre most of the times. Against UTG only it is already a debatable matter if you should squeeze. I have this hand in my calling range vs UTG. With two players, call is not ok.
I like to bet 1/4 flop. Protection is not needed, but it is mw so it is likely someone will call you and you get value.
His turn bet is very big. 4 is a pretty harmless card, so a smaller bet makes more sense to me.
Check-call here is asking for trouble imo. You are the agressor, river you'll be OOP. You check and he bets, you have a difficult decision despite having the blocker. Prefer to bet myself OTT, something like 1/2.
You can still make a thin bet OTR imo and fold to a raise.
