Default Re: 33 in BB...Standard?

Why not 3-bet preflop if you're going to play this hand. It gives you the initiative here and you have a little something to showdown.

I suppose you can just call and c/r a favorable flop but its hard to tell what a favorable flop is against a steal. Most turn cards are going to be ugly on the J7x board, given button's range, and will probably put you in tough spots on the turn and river. I would just check/fold this flop and wait for a better board to do this on like Kxx, or a paired flop, more ragged flop, etc.

Why is a Kxx board better for you than a Jxx rainbow board?

If you are going to check-fold flops like this, you might as well fold preflop. This is a reasonably good board for 33.
