englishlady (MP+1) checks, me (CO) bets €200, englishlady (MP+1) folds (spoiler for hands)
In this hand, I have a nice suited connector and it goes 20-call before me. (There's only one other strong player at the table and they're not in this hand, so I'm playing against weak competition here.) I think this is a fantastic 3bet semi-bluff spot; I'm sure cold-calling this makes a profit, but I think 3betting makes more profit on average. I think there's a good chance I can pick up the pot right here (almost no 3betting on this table), and if I don't, englislady has shown that she can fold, and I also wouldn't mind playing a big pot heads-up in position while representing premium holdings.
... but instead, I get a 3-way pot because BB decides to cold-call, and BB is also pretty short-stacked. Then the Flop gives me a pair and a gutshot and should be bad for both opponents. I'd lead this for sure, but then Englishlady donks first -- now I don't see which better hand I'm getting to fold (this looks like an overpair, which probably won't fold), so I just call. On the Turn the Ace comes and looseguy goes all-in, which I don't like at all, but at this point I'm priced in. Then at the River I get one of my outs, so I bet, but it doesn't get called.
Overall this hand looked kinda silly since I just passively called down and won because I hit the flop better than my opponents, which was not exactly the plan with a hand like this. But I also don't know which street I would play differently in hindsight. Maybe shoving the Flop has merit?

Looseguy had the most WTF hand with Q♦7♦ and englishlady said she had pocket 9s.
