Preflop: Hero is BB with 7s, 2d.
UTG folds, UTG+1 raises, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, Hero calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) 9h, 2c, 2h (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 bets, MP3 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) Jd (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 bets, MP3 calls, Hero raises, UTG+1 calls, MP3 calls.

River: (10.75 BB) 3s (3 players)

Hero bets
, UTG+1 folds, MP3 calls.

Final Pot: 12.75 BB
Main Pot: 12.75 BB, between Hero and MP3. > Pot won by Hero (12.75 BB).

Results below:

* The Hammer is the worst hand in hold’em: 72 offsuit.
