AKo OOP 3-ways, flop a gutter—lead?
Game is $2-$100 spread limit, blinds $1-$2.
CO (stack $250) opens to $8. Button (stack $200) calls. I (cover) 3-bet to $55 with AdKh in the BB. Both call.
FLOP: QcTs5h (pot: $165, 3-ways).
Lead or check?

I'd raise to around 40 pre (my philosophy is the less we have to raise pre, the less we would potentially have to cbet with ace high post flop)
As played it really depends on who the villains are and if they're tight, sticky, do they play fit or fold, etc. but for the most part I'm still cbetting since we should have all the over pairs in our range and if someone calls, we still have a quarter of the deck to improve us.
I check and check fold just because we're not that deep
help me some body please
debth doesn't matter in a limit game
OOP and multi-way, I'm checking most flops as the PFR.
They have 195 (CO), and 145 (BU), and the pot is 165.
If you want them out of it, it seems you're going to have to bet big, hope neither has a Q or better, and hope they can fold a T on QT5r. (Getting them to fold Q9/QJ is an exercise in futility, right?) Probably ambitious, but I think it's better than letting either V bet at it, and then they'll really not fold.
Reads would be nice. I'm perplexed at what was good enough to call your 7x raise, but not good enough to reraise. I'm raising less pf---I think 40 achieves your goal, but maybe you had a different read---and I'm now betting $100, hoping they don't realize you'd checkraise if you really had a monster.
Phuck I don’t know here. Check, $40 and $100 all seem about the same with these stacks.
This seems pretty villain dependent to me. Any option could be valid against certain player types.
