What's my 3b for value range?

Villain sat down recently

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP ($15.05)
Button ($50)
SB ($50.70)
Hero (BB) ($78.80)
UTG ($49.25)

Preflop: Hero is BB with cards
1 fold, MP calls $0.50, 1 fold, SB bets $3.50, Hero raises to $14

Without any reads I flat a lot of hands that I would normally 3-bet just because I don't know if that's a standard raise for him or not.
Also I would make it more like 10, especially if I'm planning on ever 3b bluffing in that spot - which I do.
I might go as far as just 3-betting AK+, JJ+, but any indication that he might be aggro could dramatically change that.

I agree, I'd prefer to 3x it, seeing as I have position on him.

A 3bet looks insanely strong here and you have no info on villain.
I might not be having a 3bet for value range here as I might not have a 3bet range at all.

I guess QQ+ or something and AK as a semibluff.

holy enormous 3bet size Batman

probably KK+ after you did that

qq/ak but dear god if you ever make it 14 there again im going to cut myself. you just put me on mega tilt

when we 3bet one of the primary reasons for normal sizing, which is 3 to 4x opponents' open, is to eliminate implied odds. when we have position, he makes a huge pfr to open the action, and we are only 100bb deep, we dont need to make a big raise in relation to his open size. I think making it something other than 8.75-9.50 is pretty bad. It's way easier for him to make stupid peels and jams when he thinks we might be FOS.

Nuts, are you ever gonna write that article/post about 3bet sizing resulting from the coaching challenge?

This. I started writing about it and then realized I was absolutely clueless and still am.

QQ+, AK, threebet smaller

if we 3-bet AQs do we have to felt vs a total unknown?

I doubt it's ok to do that in NL50 considering most people don't felt worse than AK

Does the SB commonly open for 7x with the nuts at this level?

Getting 2:1 on a call? Kinda have to stick it in.

I've been known to raise as high as 10xbb in the SB there if I believe the limper will call.

Oops, missed the limper...nevermind, his sizing seems standard then
