NL25 - Small OverPair in a 3 Way Pot

OR is a 29/10/ 3b 0% over 42 hands, also OR has folded 2 times out of 2 vs cbets

BB is a 50/10/ 3b 5% over the same hands

I have many troubles with these kind of hands, which are pretty marginal imo... This is a spot where I'm getting bluffed a lot, and if Villain has a better hand he'll value bet me to hell...

I'm ending up folding also because of the eff stack size... I thought I will face a huge turn bet and I preferred folding here, instead of the turn (yep guys, pretty weak)

First of all, I don't think your sample size if big enough for those stats to be reliable. It's a good reference, but not enough to base a decision upon IMO. 

I really don't see why you donk bet the flop, you had no reason to. You should have checked, and either call and see another card or raise for information, putting the pressure on your opponent. As played, I think you should have called the raise, since you're getting 2:6.5 odds on a call, and I think you're going to be better/get there more than  once out of three times. It's really not that big of a bet, and you can see how the turn plays out (I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be the free card play).

I've donk because I planned to fold to a raise... that's was the original plan (not that great tho) but I thought it might be better lose the pot early than lose a bigger pot later, calling down without any read... basically blindfolded

When your hand is marginal but still has value, your plan should be to get to showdown for as cheap as possible, not get out of the hand early on. Of course, if a big pot is unavoidable, it's better to fold early, but if you can, you should try to get to showdown and realize you equity.

I prefer x/c flop to donking here vs a min open UTG. we have plenty of equity and by donking he probably just going to fold all his AJ/KQ broadways and stuff that have whiffed the flop. Think we can sometimes jsut get a bet from his air
