SB: $50 (100 bb)
BB: $50 (100 bb)
UTG: $163.88 (327.8 bb)
MP: $50.25 (100.5 bb)
CO: $15.70 (31.4 bb)
Hero (BTN): $61.91 (123.8 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with A♠: J♥:
3 folds, Hero raises to $1, SB calls $0.75, BB calls $0.50

Flop: ($3) 3♣: 3♠: J♠: (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $2, SB calls $2, BB folds

Turn: ($7) 9♥: (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $4.43, SB raises to $12.19, Hero??

Preflop: Both SB and BB are regs. AJo is in my open/calling range.

Flop: Cbetting for value. I expect them to have all kinds of pocket pairs to call with.

Turn: Not the best turn card because 99 came there. I still cbet for value, but then face a check/raise which doesn't make alot of sense to me. If he has JJ or 99, why would he raise? He also probably doesn't have 3x when he calls preflop. On another side, he also shouldn't have alot of bluffs. Only KsQs come to my mind that makes sense, but wouldn't he raise this OTF and if not, would he raise this now OTT or just check/call again? Wouldn't he 3bet this preflop in the first place? I think in such situations it's best to fold, but not sure.

I pretty much agree with your analysis. Also because the board is paired I think villain is a bit less likely to bluff here with a draw? I think folding is just fine.

What do you think about a smaller flop cbet?

Only hand comes to my mind is A3, you put yourself in a hard spot for sure with turn bet.

Flop ----> bet a bit smaller (you want bet small with all of your range flops like this + you have A of spade)
Turn ---> plan ahead !!!! what weaker hand is going to call 3 street bet in a row? not much right? Just check the turn you in position, if he has some fd he can donk some rivers as a bluff, he can value bet him self with Jx and if he check pairs you can vbet river pretty safe. So what he can raise at turn? All A3, he can do it rarely with some fd and T8, he can do this with Tspade 8spade and let's put at least one combo 99. With that much info i be honest with you i dnk what is the best at the turn when you play like this. Only thing i know this is almost the weakest value hand you can have here and you have the A of spade to so you can fold and call all over pair??
