I usually 3-bet and push the turn. There are alot of cards that can kill your action.

He only has $115 left, what about just moving all in? I'm assuming you mean to 3-bet to ~$75 more.

Ya i think the three bet to 70 works better and just push any turn. Can't really go wrong with that. If the board wasn't sooo draw heavy i like the turn checkraise all in, but not on this board.

I did as well, he called with 9h5h and told me to 'eat it', lol. Didn't expect that from him, the comment, not the hand.

I'd re-raise, and push the turn. You're very likely against a set or over pair. Get some money in now, and see how much villian likes his hand.
