Given the stacks/stats I like your line. Keeping UTG+1, who's loose and has a deeper stack, in the pot will just tend to be more profitable than getting a few extra bucks from MP1 I think.

Man, there's so much to think about when playing this poker stuff. I missed the stack sizes, so Riddim's comment was an eye opener for me. But yeah, MP1's stack is so small that you're essentially playing for stacks (hopefully) w/ UTG+1.

Even if MP1 3-bets his entire raising range and UTG+1 calls 3-bets with his entire raising range, the board is missing both of these guys. The way they've played the hand, I guess you have to be ready to see MP1 turn over 44 and UTG+1 flip 66, but by flatting pre you underrepped your hand enough that these guys could take this line with many hands you crush. This looks like a +EV situation to me.

imo..fwiw..
