It all depends on fold equity. If you push you're way behind his calling range and there isn't close to enough dead money to make it +EV. I don't think you have much FE, so fold. A push is good for metagame and that's about it imo.

I say there's probably no FE so yeah I fold also. I may even fold preflop, he's UTG so I don't really like the threebet either.

i think three-betting is fine here, it's a matter of opinion.

With no reads it's hard to tell if i have any FE here. Vs some opps i probably do, vs others i have none. It just looks like a protecting bet to me. But even if it is, it looks like he wants to take it all the way.

he's protecting a hand here...you push he calls with a set/straight and you hope to suck out.
