Villain is 26/9 with a fold to flop cbet of 45% over 150 hands

I get stuck in these situations. I have no idea what to do. Since he min raises I'd say he's begging for a call which would lean more towards sets and Q9. I think he'd push a bit harder on the flop with his combo draws

do you want a low variance game? if so, folding to min-raises is fine.

Once he min-raises the flop you gotta realise he's often on a draw, in which case you calling is only good if you pot turn otherwise he gets too many free cards to his 12 outs, or a monster, where you're going to lose money. AQ he calls here most of the time.

Calling the min-raise is kinda spew if you plan to check-fold the turn.

This.

I think calling on the flop is the worst of the three options. I would fold or 3bet shove, depending on what % of his range I think is made up of AQ, KQ, QJ, QT, A9, A5, JT and FD type hands. I would think these are much more likely than Q9, 99, 55 (assuming QQ 3bets preflop).

plenty of draws and worse hands he's raising for value so shove
