So you don't believe in 3betting with a polarized range. So your value and bluffing ranges are merged which implies 3betting AQ/ AJ?????
No.
To simplify things let's only consider Ax hands and assume that Ax is better than Ay if x>y for simplicity. (it's not, since A2-A5 can make straights while A6-A9 can't)
If hypothetically I can 3bet AK+ for value, flat call AT+ with a profit, but not A2-A9, then my 3bet range will be something like {AK+,A9}, call with AT-AQ and fold {A2-A8}.
{AK+,A9} is a polarized range. {AK+,A2} would also be a polarized range but out of the hands I would fold, I'd rather 3bet bluff with the better hands from my folding range than with the worse ones.
