Default Re: 3-bet the flop or wait till the turn?

I normally don't advocate this, but on this board I think you can wait till the Turn, and then checkraise, because

1. The board has almost no draws, barring one not likely gutshot.
2. CO will very likely have to bet the Turn because of the presence of the Button.
3. You can trap the Button in the middle of the Checkraise.

So yeah, here I think you can wait. If you 3-bet the flop you WILL kill your action from a good UTG, unless he has you beat.
You really do have to be very sure of a bet on the Turn though. But I think in this situ you mostly can be. Hopefully you get read for a missed AK or underpair until you CR the Turn.
