I've been wondering around this for some days.
Assuming all my PF 3bets are for value, should I 3bet only the villains that can't really fold to a 3bet? I've been trying different things and I can't really draw any meaningful conclusion.
For example, let's say I have a regular at the table that opens from MP. I'm BTN holding AKs. My default is to 3bet. He folds 3/4 of the time. So I take 5,5BB in the hands I 3bet him with and when he doesn't fold I'll most likely be facing a pocket pair which will suck if I don't hit the flop.
I've tried to flat IP (I will always 3bet from blinds since I want the initiative). All is easy if I hit the A or the K. If I hit a FD or a gutshot (and I have the overcards) it's easy to raise and a regular will often fold... but... when I hit nothing I'm usually facing a cbet. Should I float here? 2NL regulars usually keep firing, so...
I'm a bit lost on 3betting with hands like AK AQ. I feel that I'm loosing value when I 3bet and that I'm not sorting it out post flop when I don't. Any opinions?
