It was the 2nd or 3rd time he made a move against me on the flop. If I have a hand something like QJ/TT etc., it's easy because I wouldnt Cbet, rather ch/call against him, or playing bet/call flop, ch/call on next streets, but AJ doesnt have that good of a showdown value.
His raise doesnt represent much here, AQ/KQ/QQ/55/44 wouldnt raise here most of the time, the only valid hand is 54, which is better to raise with for protection. Is bluff 3betting a good way to fight back? It doesnt represent much either, but he will have a hard time to continue with his airs, which consist a large part of his range.
What do you think?

Hi,

I think 3-bet that spot is reasonable. I would prefer myself taking spot where I have two overcards or have more equity, but Qxx is also fine. Although if he had raised you before I doubt he would bluff you random hands, so b/f seems also fine and then going with your hand if you have AQ+

best regards,
