just currious what is the range of hands you 3 bet here Harv? is letting this hand go multiway a bad idea by calling

With position, and especially with the PFR being directly to my right, I'll 3-bet AQs every time. It's relatively rare that you are dominated by AA/AK; more often you'll be up against another AQ/AJ, or a PP KK-TT. But in any of those situations, it becomes much easier to play your hand postflop if you can get it heads up, or at least buy the button. 3-betting also gives you better postflop folding equity against another AQ or even a slightly better hand, since most players wouldn't even dream of 3-betting that hand.

If I were out of position (in the blinds) I would just call. I might also cold call if I'm already on the button.
