Default 3 bet over pair preflop Ace hits on flop

I can probably find about 50 examples inside of the PT database, but I wanted to ask a theoretical question.

Say a solid player raises early, you sit MP with a hand like JJ-KK. You 3 bet. all fold

an ace flops, he bets - assuming he is solid, what is the generally accepted action here?

What about if there are 2 loose passive/loose aggressive cold callers so 4 to the flop with an ace, solid bets, on you with 2 to act behind?

what about a solid raises early, 2 coldcallers, you sit in the small or big blind with QQ or KK and 3 bet. An ace flops - bet out? check call, check fold unimproved on 4th?

I am bleeding away alot of chips in these two scenarios. 3 bet , fold on the flop seems so weak, but it seems that I am looking at an AK, AQ, A...whatever, about 99.8% of the time.

Thanks,
Kevin

P.S.
If you want specific hands posted, I can find them and put them in the small stakes forum, but they all seem to be slight variations of the examples explained above.

You answered the question yourself. If an ace flops and the opponent bets, you are usually beaten. Unless the opponent is tricky, I fold these hands pretty quick.
