Good scare card. But he prob has AK in his range and if he is bad might have KQ as well, along with 77-QQ and do you have any reason to suspect that he can fold 88-QQ to another barrel?

3B'ing here is pretty bad without history/better reads since you have no idea how he reacts in these spots. Having said that if you are choosing to 3B and c-bet this flop this is a mandatory Double-Barrel on this turn card and I would bet bigger for sure.

I like this, and why would we go bigger turn? You wanna give him 2;1 on the river when we inevitably shove it?

The more I think about the 3bet with AQ, the more I like it. Daven has a read villain is weaktight, so his raising range is going to be pretty strong, and we're dominated by a lot of it and the parts that we're flipping against (66-JJ) its hard to extract when we hit, plus we block a ton of his continuing range, and he likely gives up post a decent bit.

Double barreling is definitely the best play since he'll be floating with 77-QQ (maybe 33-55 if he calls those pre) and he's going to fold 77-TT/JJ a lot to our barrel. Plus, even if he continues with JJ/QQ we can shove river and he's going to have a helluva time calling.

This sums it up just fine

25 hands is completely insignificant in order to label this player as weak-tight.

We don't exactly block a 'ton' of his preflop continuing range when you said yourself he can still have 77-QQ when he calls our 3B (not even considering he may flat with 22-66, AA/KK IP)

We block AK/AQ/AA/QQ (he may fold AQ) and that leaves him with (at most) 28 combos of those hands.

The rest constitutes anywhere from 33 (77-QQ) to 72 (22-AA) combos

So best case we block 28/61 -> 46%, and worst case we block 28/110 -> 25%

My point is we don't know enough about his range regarding calling 3B's IP enough in order to justify 3B'ing in the first place, and choosing to c-bet/DB/TB without specific reads is pretty bad, though like I said on this particular turn card DB'ing is best since it strengthens your relative hand range, and that in and of itself is a good enough reason to bet.

Shoving river when he calls the turn bet though seems awful, as an unknowns range for calling a 3B, and calling two barrels especially on this board is going to be ridiculously strong, and he may even 'mistakenly' call a river shove with JJ-QQ.
