Playing medium pair in a 4 way plot

So this hand has been bothering me a little bit. With 3 people entering the pot before me I was finding it difficult to think whether or not my 10s would be good. Being in the small blind and calling made it feel a little tricker because the big blind could have easily squeezed and pushed us all out of the pot. So, rightly or wrongly I called. BTN: 181.5 BB (VPIP: 30.77, PFR: 16.67, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 14) Hero (SB): 131 BB BB: 110.5 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 1) UTG: 134.5 BB MP: 202.5 BB (VPIP: 14.29, PFR: 14.29, 3Bet Preflop: 20.00, Hands: 7) CO: 110 BB (VPIP: 44.44, PFR: 22.22, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 9) Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has T:club: T:spade: UTG raises to 4 BB , fold , CO calls 4 BB, BTN calls 4 BB, Hero calls 3.5 BB, fold Flop: (17 BB, 4 players) 8:heart: 3:spade: 2:spade: With this flop and so many callers it was hard to think what I could do first off so the check ...

6max fast holdem 15c/30c. Your early position raise gets 2 callers and an Ace hits the flop. What are you going to do?

We love starting with a pair of Kings. But when the villian is happy to carry on calling bets with 2 Queens on the board should we be afraid that he has one of the other 2?  What is in his range: AA, KK, QQ, AK, AQ, possibly other pairs?  Has he hit a full house with his pair of 7s?

Playing Queens in a Multiway Pot?

Microstakes 1c/2c 6max. 12 hands on villain 3 with VP 100, PF 73 and 3Bet 60.  Only 1 hand on villian 3 and so they are a complete unknown. When both villians call the preflop raise and the raise on the flop we know we are in trouble...but wait for the hands.
