PLO Grinder here.

There are a few spots recently that I have a hard time analyzing what the strategy is. One in particular is having an overpair in a 3 bet pot on a paired flop.

Against trickier opponents, they will often times pot the board knowing that it is not 'typically' in my range. I notice that they have it sometimes and other times just looking to blow you off the hand. Especially, depending on the trips they have. Seemingly, if they do have trips they will want to slowplay some frequency.

Example:

Hero:
KhKsTsJd

Villian:
?

Villian opens to 3BB and Hero makes it 11BB Villain calls.

Flop:
3h3h5s

Villain checks, hero bets 1/3. Villain pots. This is a basic example. My point in is what is the strategy against trickier opponent at 100BB, 150BB, 200BB+. What happens about a rainbow flop? My point is at low SPRs just stick it in. But, at SPRs of 3-5 what is the move?

Cheers.

Both as the preflop aggressor and as the caller, paired flops can be the trickiest to play. You will need to do a certain amount of guesswork and sometimes shrug your shoulders and pay them off. However, the vast majority of the player pool, especially at low stakes and live, tends to underbluff these spots. So, barring a read of competency and aggression, you can generally happily bet-fold. If it feels like their frequencies are out of whack, call them down once in a while. Checking the flop rather than c-betting is a grand weapon against wanton check-raises too.

Agree vs aggro checking/checking back for pot control and to induce stabs is effective.

Positions kind of relevant too, if the initial raiser was UTG he’s not likely to have a 3 very often etc.
