Villan is a friend that I play live with regularly.. Hes capable of making plays with air when he feels im weak.. But with his raise preflop // call, then lead the flop... Can you find a fold on the flop, after he three-bets, looks to much like AQ..?

i think im folding after he 3bets your either tied or way behind shoving for a chop is pretty bad. id say hes on 77 or 33 a lot here

I think you have to fold to the 3-bet here. You mentioned that Villian can make plays when he senses weakness. Your line is strong here and he makes a committing 3-bet anyways. This flop is as dry as the come - I agree you're up vs. 77 + 33 here alot. KK and AA are possibilities as well of course.

im not raising the flop after ur 3b

hes only folding the hands you beat. and the board is dry enough that he shouldnt have any draws

as played, def fold to 3b

Agreed, you don't need to protect your hand as only a King scares you, and as Micro Donk says he's folding everything you beat and is 3betting/calling with hands that crush you (77/33 and maybe QQ) when you raise the flop.

What everyone else said and also your 3bet preflop is awful. I wouldn't even make a 3bet that small with 100BB stacks. If you're going to 3bet at all preflop make it $4.50. At least charge him for the times he doesn't hit his set.

I really depends how wide your 3bet range IP is. If you 3bet only QQ+ then sure you have to protect your hand from set. When your range also includes AQ+ and some other hands (SCs etc) then setmining is not profitable after 3bet to 3$ in NL25 100BB game.

What hands call you that you beat if you make it 4.50?

3bet size is also correlated to you ability to play good postflop. As OP doesn't find a fold postflop then he might be better off raising more preflop (and tightening 3bet range to JJ+, AK).
