NL100 - KQo: 3bet pot, flop..

very standard cbet especially, you have a lot of equity vs his range, also he folds enough on flop. the board hits good his range, but still he is going to have hands that give up.

x/c or cbet is fine. folding away too much equity.

what about preflop 3bet? do you rather call KQ, AJ, because it is not a value 3bet, and it is too strong to turn into bluff? I would understand reason of 3bet linear range if there is very agro reg in the BB, so that we would have to fold often preflop, or play in 3way pot. But with fish in BB I find call much better.

I rather play 3bet or fold as standard and go from there. BB being fish and getting him involved makes our hand better yes, but don't want to overestimate since we are still oop to 2 players. I do try to get the bb involved in the pot though the worse he is.

BB is 21/18 with 7.1% squeeze BB.

I would 3bet just like you did and play it different post. x/c is fine.

why it is fine cbet this board? i dont see him folding much on this board. if you cbet this board what is our plan for turn and river?

I think that it would be actually the best to check 100% range and put our self in defense mode. Villian has more nutted combos here.
Also having more combos in cr range would decrease his positional advantage which is extremely important on such board.
Still KQ can hardly be -EV when betting, because it has so much equity, but it is question if it is higher EV than check/call
