Here I put villain on Ax hand at most and wanted to make him over commit with minraise, but when he almost instantly 3bets on flop and pots on turn I was wondering wether he really can have a good hand (some players tend to go tricky in blind battles) and couldn't fold it.

I think you should raise bigger OTF. This is blind war so I expect villain to 3bet OTF with wider range than usual.
I don't think going broke is bad but maybe we should just call turn and hope he doesn't bet again OTR? AK and some sets are still possible.

Don't like those 2,>5x raises. Getting max value from Ax here is x/c x/c bet otr, mini raising always seems like strong hand and most of the time you'll see one call on the flop and silence afterwards.

Have you ever seen someone 3 bet the flop here with Ax naked which is pretty much the only thing you beat ? Fish might do it, but this guy played only 1 hand in eleven opportunities. For me its a fold on the flop but not sure if i can do it ingame. Ingame i am probably calling flop and definitely folding turn after the potbet.

The way you played it - the turn raise is bad as you isolate against better.

In my opinion - raise bigger flop an hope he continues with Ax and when raraised/shoved- press the fold button.

We should raise bigger on flop as our hand needs protection.
Getting it in OTT is not perfect but still ok.

I'd play this the same way as Dadramel suggests. Call-call-call, or bet whenever he checks. He'll have little in the form of outs (2-5), and in this game you have to give free cards, especially when he pays for them by betting.

the flop is an okay spot to flat. while you have the best hand a very high % of the time, there aren't really too many draws to be concerned about. if our opponent is bluffing, we don't want him out of the hand, since he can continue bluffing or improve to a second best hand. raising for value like you did is fine as well, and probably my default play. i like your small sizing on this dry of a board. when SB reraises folding is an option as well but i don't fault a call.
