Double barrel turn after c-bet? Double barrel turn after c-bet?

Villain is 40/21/47 over 40 hands. I have a few questions about how I played this hand:

- Was 3-betting AQs too loose a play here? And if it is correct to 3-bet, is 3x too high?
- With one high card on the flop and villain with a wide range I figured it was correct to c-bet here. But does villain calling a 3-bet PF mean I should be more cautious?
- Should I be double barrelling the turn here?

PokerStars - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3

BB: $2.00
UTG: $1.60
MP: $5.00
Hero (CO): $3.39
BTN: $3.31
SB: $2.00

SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: ($0.03) Hero has A Q

UTG raises to $0.08, fold, Hero raises to $0.24, fold, fold, fold, UTG calls $0.16

Flop: ($0.51, 2 players) 8 5 K
UTG checks, Hero bets $0.35, UTG calls $0.35

Turn: ($1.21, 2 players) 6
UTG checks, Hero?

Advice much appreciated, cheers.

why are you trying to bluff a fish?

3bet is fine, with those stats they're certainly calling with worse (3bet a merged range vs this fish, i.e stuff like KQ etc). , plus you're in position. Cbetting this flop is fine, once a fish like this calls though, they're probably calling any turn bet. The 6 is a very bad card for you, it'll keep stuff like 67, 78 etc that the fish would call with in the pot, so I check it back.

3-betting AQs depends on villain's 3bet calling range, without a read it is probably better to call, but it is def. not bad to 3bet.

As played, it's fine, but I am not barrelling the turn (no Kx is folding, and even 77-JJ will often call another bet). I don't see any hands besides air that fold the turn but call the flop.

played fine vs. a fish pre and OTF, just x back the turn and give up unimproved

Agreed - against his PF range, I think that's a good 3B for value. Cbet is good also but no point in putting any additional money in after the turn card hits.
