this looks like a tough play. His range is pretty strong, although the flat pre-flop could be AA, I doubt it.

I expect him to have something here like AK, AQ, QQ.

What was his 3-bet %? I might even have to fold to the flop raise here, and the pre-flop 4-bet is suspect, but I'm not sure about that play.

Thanks for your input, No stats due to table move.
The preflop play wasn't a 4 bet, 1 limper, one raise and then i 3bet?
the preflop limper had limped over half of the hands i had been on table for so i wasn't worried about him. I expected to be flatted by 77-JJ and maybe QQ but not KK or AA, AJ+ KJs+.
So i thought that his shoving range on that flop involved a few flush draws, AK AQ and maybe even AJ (unlikely but still).
Is that too wide?

yea tough one mate, it would have been so much easier if we had any read whatsoever , but with nothing to work with , im not shore what id do myself.
range could be anything here AQ QQ fit perfectly here for a good player , the thing is ive played 30 dollar torneys on various sites and you encounter this sort of agression with flush draws quite often , AJ , A10 and even KK is not a rare occurance. So without any reads the range is too wide to make a decision.
Maybe flat the reraise and see what comes on turn as we have position , probably just go to defence mode after that , unless flush card hits.

combination of draws seem almost non-existent. i can only see KhQh possibly taking this line but then i look closer at his c/r size OTF making me think he is very strong. probably AQ or QQ.

if we can narrow his range to AQ, KhQh, QQ OTF then its a clear fold obviously.
i just can't think of any other hands that would take this line.

So i thought that his shoving range on that flop involved a few flush draws, AK AQ and maybe even AJ (unlikely but still).
Is that too wide?

but he didn't check/shove the flop. i think we can easily call a check/shove OTF and feel good about it.
