The cbet is okay if he has high fold2cbet stat in 3bet pots.
Otherwise I'll just check/fold.

As played, I'll fold when he raises our cbet of the flop. There are lots of cards we don't want to see on the Turn.

I like cbetting this flop because I expect his 3Betting-calling-range does not hit this board very hard. That's also the reason why I'm suspicious of his flop-raise. He can have a few flush draws and a few set combo's but the largest part of his range are unpaired overcards, no?
Am I over-optimistic expecting my hand is still best even after he raises the flop?
Of course, I agree the turn is going to be difficult if villain continues aggression...

Hey CamboCat,

With no reads the best option here is likely to fold vs opponents raise on the flop.

Against a more aggressive opponent we can definitely consider 3betting the flop as a bluff although it may end up being a bad play at these limits. bet/3b can often be better than bet/call here.
