one line is to just call the flop, call the turn, and call the river... betting if checked to.

what hand did you put him on after he capped preflop and then 3-bet the flop? i'd say a higher pocket pair. if you're gonna raise the flop, then you might as well just fold to the 3-bet b/c he's making his hand pretty obvious and you're just not paying attention to what he's telling you.

I would just call down after he bets the turn.

I'm guessing he's got Kings or Queens and is afraid of your Aces.

The turn raise is concerning. If he has aces you open yourself up to a 3 bet. If he has kings or queens it doesn't matter because you lose anyway. If he has 10's or overcards you're golden, but it doesn't look like he has that after capping preflop and three betting the flop.

Online I'd call down after the flop 3 bet if I thought my opponent was capable of playing overcards this aggressively.
