Hi,

I am not really sure how to play these 3-beted pots. I raised pre with AQo from UTG and receives 3-bet which is kind of strong against my UTG range. I think call pre is ok for sure. I hit second pair and he bets big. Well it feel kind of weak to me to fold, but what I actually beat here? Pretty much nothing except from bluffs and hands like TT or JJ which he decides to turn into bluff (I don't think he people do that often). Or should I call one street and then fold to any bet? A does not seem to improve me that much. Only improving card s Q which would probably end action. So idk. How do you play these kind of spots? Thanks a lot for advices.

Villain is tight so far and I don't think it''s bad to just fold pre-flop without any position on him.
You need to hit top pair or better to continue after the flop.
