Default Re: Appearing Weak

If you approach it that way then it's a math problem. You calling PF and check/folding on x% of flops makes his 3-bet immediately profitable with any two. With a hand as bad as J8o I'm sure x would have you making some ridiculous folds that no one would ever make, so 3-betting J8o in that spot is never profitable. However, if you are playing a misprogrammed bot who raises PF every hand, never caps a 3-bet, and check/folds 80% of his hands on the flop, then obviously you should 3-bet any two against him if you are HU after his raise (either because you're playing HU or it's folded to you) and you will show an immediate profit by doing so.
