Villain is a relative unknown
Flop: My standard line is to just bet/fold vs a raise (without further reads and an SPR this large) with anything less than 2pr, however, I think if villain raises here with AJo+, QQ+, 2pr+ then I am actually ahead of villains range which I would expect to be something like:

Equity Win Tie
MP2 57.96% 57.96% 0.00% { KdKh }
MP3 42.04% 42.04% 0.00% { QQ, JdJs, JdJc, JsJc, 9d9h, 9d9s, 9h9s, 5d5s, 5d5c, 5s5c, AJs, Jd9d, Js9s, AJo }
However, If I 3b I think villain will only go broke with something like:

MP3 48.46% 48.46% 0.00% { QQ, JdJs, JdJc, JsJc, 9d9h, 9d9s, 9h9s, 5d5s, 5d5c, 5s5c, Q2s, Jd9d, Js9s }
If villain goes broke with anything worse than this range then I think that I have a profitable 3b. The alternative is to call and re-evaluate the turn and keep villain's weaker range in the hand. In addition I have backdoor hearts that may allow me to continue on a lot of turns.
What do you think is the best line OTF and why?
bet/fold, bet/call, bet/3b?
