Interesting flop actions from players ahead.. Thoughts?

I'd imagine at least one of them has a combo draw... Call?

Really odd lines by villains. I'd still expect you to be ahead a lot of the time so I'd at least be calling. If you flat $1.82 on the flop then you have ~$3 behind into a pot of over $6 so you'll be committed on most turns. Even on hearts I'd be reluctant to fold since players show up with random stuff like A3o in this spot more often than you'd expect. Given the amount of money you'd be committing on the flop I think just shoving it might be the best play.

I have to disagree that shoving the flop is the best play, what are we hoping calls that we beat other than draws? Against a donk and raise I'm just folding AQ here, both look like regs (almost full stacks) so don't see too wide of a range. If we did get it in on the flop, I'd expect us to be flipping at best most of the time

I'll agree with you that fold is best if the assumption is that they're regs. Just based on flop play though I'm assuming they're casual players when one player donks and the other minraises and therefore giving them significantly wider ranges. I'm not thrilled about the shove but since the SPR is so low if you put any money in I think it should be all of it.

I think id just fold here vs this action ,

26% equity vs

99,AKs,A9s,K9s,QhJh,QhTh,JhTh,Qh9h,Jh9h,Th9h,AKo

I think those are the ranges you are looking at for villains ranges. Its possible one has maybe an AJ most likely UTG but both having worse that you have enough equity against to shove ? i think you have somewhere between 15% and 26% equity here.
