Tough spot 3 way pot.

Blinds: $1.00/$2.00 (6 Players) BN: $213.14
SB: $269.21
BB: $717.51
UTG: $235.21
MP: $206.00 (Hero)
CO: $177.21
Preflop ($3.00) Hero is MP with K A
UTG raises to $5.48, Hero calls $5.48, 2 folds, SB calls $4.48, BB folds
Flop ($18.44) A 8 J
SB checks, UTG bets $10.92, Hero calls $10.92, SB calls $10.92
Turn ($51.20) A 8 J 3
SB checks, UTG bets $35.21, Hero calls $35.21, SB raises to $252.81 and is all in, UTG calls $183.60 and is all in, Hero folds
On the turn it gets a little weird. It looks super scary when utg bets big in 3 way draw heavy board like this. I have the Kd blocker that made me less inclined to happy call but at the same time I felt i'll be over folding if I only find set of 88s and JJs to call here. Any thoughts?
Final Pot SB wins and shows a pair of Jacks|a flush, Ace high.
UTG wins and shows three of a kind, Eights|three of a kind, Eights.
UTG wins $260.62 SB wins $260.61
Rake is $2.80

Well played in my opinion.

Take a note and check If he's doing that size with TP in that kind of situations.

I would never worry about "overfolding" in a spot like this. Nobody is exploiting anybody here. UTG opens bets twice into 2 guys with the MP guy calling twice. SB is not looking to exploit this spot lol.

dont necesarily agree. sb range looks fairly weak when he overcalls draw heavy flop like this. on blank turn, its best for UTG range obv and if he expect us to fold 80% and only call with 88,jj, AJs and some combo draws, then he has very profitable barrel given sb will have to fold a ton OOP with a draw heavy/weak TP heavy range.
also, since UTG probably only cbets this board with hands that can barrel a lot because that it hits ur and sb range pretty well. one barrel won't be profitable for him as a result so he will only cbet hands that will double or triple barrel most run outs. so calling this flop fairly wide, and folding a lot on turns, will a typical UTG strat to be very profitable
