Opponent who call my 3bet preflop very often call or open raise preflop and he seldom fold on flop. Board T98 rainbow is bad for me, yeah I have backdoor flush and straight and still two overcards but I don't convinced about cbet here when more times he call or maybe raise (this board is better for him not me). Check-call maybe I can play here but when turn nothing change I should fold too there. What You think about this hand?

Good fold.
When you don't have a made hand or a strong draw, just let it go — even in a 3Bet pot. Turning air into a bluff ≠ profit

Against a villain that calls your 3-bet too wide, you just want to flop strong hands and take his money. If you completely miss, it's better to just x/fold straight away, because he won't fold to your flop c-bet that often anyway, especially on a board like this you have really little fold equity against his range.

Well played. :)

Seems well played. On a wet board like this it's tough to get better hands to fold and it will be tough to continue if villain bets like now.
