I 3-bet more PF, probably to 30.
AP, when you bet the flop and the SB calls and the CO max raises, it’s a pretty meh spot. I assume he doesn’t do this with a random J.
Unless he has a high bluff frequency in this spot I probably just fold. This is pure value line and he expects to go to showdown. I know it sounds nitty but we’re not beating any of his value range and I can’t find a lot of logical bluffs in his range given this texture.
This is where I landed.

FLOP: Jh7s4c ($100, 4-ways).
Everyone checks to me. I bet $35. SB calls. HJ folds. CO raises MAX to $135.
RESULT: I folded. SB folded, CO wins without showing.
I was convinced CO’s line was a value line, and I didn’t think he was the type of player to do that with like KJ or something.
My general feeling at these games is that I should fold to basically all Max bets unless I’m at the absolute top of my range. And even then…you just don’t see enough $100 bluffs to make light call-downs, and, you REALLY don’t see enough bluffs to make three light $100 call-downs on the same hand!
(I suppose I could have called once, in the hopes of picking up a spade, or, in case he was just trying a bluff just on the flop and was going to give up if I called. But I folded pretty quickly and didn’t spend too long second-guessing my decision. Throughout the session, CO got involved in a few more big pots, and every time he went to showdown he had a monster. And he also would fold an overpair to me in a spot later on. So…I’m thinking he just hit a set and I made a good fold.)
