3.) imo a little overplayed.

i dont see a reason for raising the flop. you have just a few overcard-outs which have to be discounted to around 3 outs..
so due to the fact that the pot is enormously big i think you can call.

i also dont see a reason for etting the river. there is no worse hand that calls you

3) the turn raise was to kick out UTG and UTG+1
on the turn UTG+2 bets $0.23 (his whole stack)
the river bet was a pure bluff against UTG I hoped to get split pot with UTG+2 if he has also AK

I don't say that I think this play was good but these were my thoughts while doing it.

ok.. next try:

hands that utg+2 could have are imo AA,KK,QQ or AK because of the preflop action.
there is no hand that is worse than yours. so raising isnt the right way in my opinion.

(consider that i'm also not the perfect poker player;))

read more carefully!
I didn't say kick out UTG+2 - just UTG and UTG+1

1) Without reads I like it because SB shows much strength here.

2) Bet the flop because they all might check which is horrible for your hand.
Call turn is ok here and river bet too.

3) With UTG+2 nearly allin I like the flop and turn which means that they often go crazy with really bad hands and because the turnbet is so small there is no use in raising because UTG will call you anyway.
But check the river behind. Every pair will call you and only worse hands fold here. Like busted draws which you beat anyway.
If UTG+2 has a full stack (12BB) I think you don't need t raise the flop because the pot is so huge that even if you raise nearly any pair and draw will still call you.
