Villian Stats (VPIP/PFR/AF): 18/17/4

So I'm watching the Masters last night on the laptop (Ive got money on Bubba and Jimmy Walker) and I open a single Full Flush table (the only one I can get a seat at 10 handed) 50nl I buy in for 50$.. I usually use HM2 but it doesn't support Full Flush so reads are limited. Anyway there is one big stack with 300bb about $150 so he is having a good session and is sitting three to my right so is in the CO when I'm the bb.
He is aggressive both pre and post flop. In 40 or so hands I see him three bet a couple of times including me once when I had 77 utg and he raised me from the button and I folded, he also squeezed nicely from the sb over about 5 limpers and double barreled twice. Nothing seen going to show down. Typical TAG not playing too many hands, his stats are estimated.
The hand is folded around to him in MP and he raises to $2, I'm on the button with QQ. It crosses my mind to just call here and try and slow play the queens hoping for under cards and to float a few streets.
The question is do we do this with QQ here? I'd be happy to play it this way with KK or AA, or with the queens against a weaker player.
If overs come its going to be double tricky.
In the end I decided he was too strong a player to mess with post flop with QQ so I just three bet to $7 and he folded.....
Just as an aside Full Flush is full of fish, I've doubled my bankroll there with hardly a scare in no time. Even at 50nl there was regular heavy limping with half the players sitting at the table with $20 or less and not playing their short stacks properly

3bet there to isolate IMO, unless you feel the blinds won't call then I'm fine with flatting some of the time. If the blinds will call (or others behind us) and we'll have to play it multi way I'd 100% isolate and re-assess if overs fall. Overs fall in a 3/4 way pot I'm never going to be happy really.

I'm of to reg to Full Flush lmfao, cheers mate ;)

first of all you should post the hand in a way that makes it more readable

anyhow a 3bet here is pretty standard and should happen almost `100% of the time - your way ahead of villains opening range. Chances are Villain will just fold or flat and you can bet most flops for value. If villain 4bets obviously you flat a lot and 5bet occasionally
