    UTG+1 showed As 2d (two pair, Nines and Deuces)
    Hero showed Qh Qs (two pair, Queens and Nines)
    MP3 showed Ac 7c (a pair of Nines)

    Hero scoops the pot.


    OK, that's better. After UTG+1 shoves, I think the best play is to shove. You'd prefer taking the flop heads-up, but MP3 probably wasn't folding anyway. Even if MP3 calls and wins, it isn't hurting your stack.

    You wouldn't have had to worry about it had you pushed after UTG+1 reraised you.

    Given the stack sizes, I'd have pushed the flop whether an ace or a king showed up.
