I open QQ utg and get called by villian in CO and button.
Flop: 10 J K rainbow
I lead for 35 into a 48 pot and villian (Don VincenzOo) raises to 115 and button folds. Is this a standard push? Should I be checking flop for pot control? Maybe a CR on flop? I'm just not too sure in this kind of spot.
I have villian at a 30/23/5 over 300 hands btw.

Depending on villain and your table image a push can never be too wrong.
Villain can have a lot of pair+ draw in his range along with an occasional air on this very wet board.
Sets and the nut str8 is less likely as people 3bet these sorts of pairs PF along with AQ.
So ultimately your hand is probably stronger than villains range.
Your range however is some what skewed between hands that are really strong and hands that are really weak, in which case some villains will raise bluff this flop with air and others will fast play nut hands such as KJ and TJ.
