People who 3-bet all in on a board like this almost always have jack [censored]. However, a lot of people just think "big bet" and might fold. Good luck.

how about 3betting small like this...?
i think to most opponents at this level it looks extremely strong. Just my thoughts and experiences

UTG+1 raise from TAG = AA-JJ, AK, AQ
If villain is paying attention, he knows this.

The 3-bet will probably chase off TT, 88, 77 that are trying to test you. Unfortunately, it'll also spew chips at 99 or any 6, and QQ-JJ might not be going anywhere.

However, if villain is not out of line when calling preflop raises, there arent too many hands that he could have that are ahead of what you're representing (AA-QQ, i'd say). Not a terrible play then, especially if you think he's testing your continuation bet.

Just hope it works...
