There's only one system. Bet. Lose. Borrow. Steal. Lose. Take the drugs. Lose. Prison. Death.

Agree. And I'd certainly fold to the reraise/call that followed.

 If I call this RR and there isn't a FD/2pair on the flop, I insta-fold. That being said, I don't call this 3bet.

if you call the 3b you must go all in as fast as possible after flopping top pair
your SPR is 3 bet the flop and shove the turn

but this is why you should not call the 3b since it will force you to stack off against AQ/AK
