Villain just called a 300 river bet on a 3

board with AQ. He loves to splash around!

Hero $1200
Villain1 $1500
Villain2 $1000

Villain Raises to 20 UTG + 2
Tight Old man flats in the CO
Hero raises in SB to $65 K

Villain and CO flats

Flop $200 3

1. The $65 3 bet was awful! What should I make the 3 bet?
2. As played, what do I bet on the flop?
3. Do I ever check the flop??

1. Anywhere from $85-$105.

2. Anywhere from $65-$95.

3. I don't think I would ever check against these 2 described villains.

1. 85-105 like Katman says is good preflop.
2. I actually do prefer a check on the flop. It is really really easy to blow you off the hand and even the "worse" hands still should have a ton of equity here. If you choose to bet, I'd bet small around 1/3 pot. I'm just looking to see a cheap showdown OOP on a terrible board.

Preflop raise to 80~100.

Before you decide what to do on the flop, decide whether you want to stack off vs the guy who likes to spash around with only 1000 in his stack.

My own assumption is that with an overpair with no club you don't really want all the chips to go in and you're kind of hoping to get to the river with about two streets worth of value vs only one opponent.

Depending on the answer to those questions I could get behind a flop bet of 80 into 200 or a check.

I don't really want to bet 80 and then have both of them call and bloat the pot.

Pre $85-$105, as the Vs' styles, prefer larger size.
Flop: 35% pot.
yes, but for this hand, I like betting.

In a pre 3bet hand, I don't worry too much about this flop. According to your description, you could def get some live reads on both Vs.
