BTN: $10.83
SB: $12.42
BB: $3.89
UTG: $10.00
Hero (MP): $12.34
CO: $9.50

Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is MP with 9 :spade: A :club: T :club: 7 :club:
1 fold, Hero raises to $0.30, 1 fold, BTN raises to $1.05, 1 fold, BB calls $0.95, Hero calls $0.75

Flop: ($3.20) T :heart: 5 :club: T :diamond: (3 players)

BB checks, Hero ???

Is it better to go for a check raise here or bet out?

Assume I should fold to the 3-bet even three ways when the BB is a fish?

Spoiler

Hero checks, BTN checks
Turn: ($3.20) Q :heart: (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $3.06, BTN folds, BB calls $2.84 all in

River: ($8.88) 2 :spade: (2 players - 1 is all in)

Suited ace with rundown is a great hand to call a 3-bet with as it's very playable vs AAxx. So regardless of having a fish or not, I think it's a fairly easy call.

It depends on the opponent, but I think it's better to go for a c/r (people almost always c-bet paired boards). If you donk, it's unlikely that you will get called very often by anything worse than Txxx.

Thanks Schnitzelfisch.

I often fold Axxx hands to a three bet as I'm effectively drawing to one less out against assumed AAxx from a tightish 3-bettor.

You have $9 left and there is $3 in the pot.

If I was bluffing here I would definitely lead out, checkraising has a 0% chance of getting a fold. So I don't mind leading out here (for $1.50) either, but in this case, with holding the ace in our hand there is a chance villain wasn't 3 betting with aces, which means he can't call a flop bet if we make one.

If the flop gets checked back we can still get stacks in on the turn and river by betting $2 then $7 so going for a checkraise is fine.

If you have Axxx in hand, you shouldn't automatically fold to 3-bets. Especially A+rundown ss+ is great for calling 3-bets. Opening loose from late positions and folding a lot to 3-bets can be a huge leak.
