Haven't played much with Villain but he doesn't seem out of line. In 50 hands he was 22/2, if that matters much. I know I should 3bet preflop but I like to mix it up. Should I play this any differently?

Because you *know* you should 3-bet it pre-flop why are you even continuing on this flop? Completely contradictory to what your pre-flop thoughts were. I don't mind just calling the re-raise sometimes but you've gotta let it go on this flop. This was played poorly.

To continue on this point of view, the only time you should flat call the raise preflop is when you are pretty sure he is big pair (jj-kk). I would probably three bet preflop since I don't know much about him, but when you hit a flop like this and you are putting him on jj-kk, you gotta fold to his flop or turn bet.
