However, keep in mind the decision of whether to 3bet or not was decided before we got to this flop. So just because we see a flop where it is likely favorable to call preflop rather than 3bet, doesn't mean that the call was better +EV decision preflop. However, imo, and given the normal range of hands most villains continue against 3bets with, I think in this instance a call is usually better than a 3bet.

Just a FWIW, calling here in villain's shoes with hands like AK, 22-99 are probably not the ideal choice.
OK, so what hands should we be 3betting here and is there any type of villian we should be 3betting here with jj?
