i dont like cbetting this flop after 3betting without any info because it doesnt hit ur range much and thinking opps will raise the hell out of you on these boards...His range is trips,AJ,KJ and it can be any draw...

not sure if Villain raises all AJ,KJ very often. maybe 50% call 50% raise? same with sets. do u agree? i think his calling range ist much stronger against our AK, but raising range isnt too big (i see bluffs,50% sets, ton of draws, some big Jx)

As default I would B/F and later on in the game I will adjust of course.
It's not like it will be a huge difference what you do in this spot probably, but it will be a lot of variance if you start to jam it in or call him down with A high. Just avoid it until you know more.

Your half pot bet on the flop seems a bit weak I'd prob b/f 45. His raising range could easily be any set KJ AJ

Cbet is fine. Small sizing is fine though I'd make it a tiny bit bigger. Why would you cbet big in a 3bet pot? It's just silly.
