    3bet-ak.

    with high pps, im not as worried about postflop vulnerability, even given bu's tendencies, and im looking to build a big pot, which seems easier multiway than hu vs a passive fish. ak is 3bet for value, and to iso the pot.
    You can see the above discussion on the merits of cold-calling with PPs and SCs and how there are differing opinions here... it basically boils down to whether you think you can take down pots on a semi-bluff enough of the time vs a nit playing a strong range.

    3betting here depends on opp's tendencies, if he'd open with JJ and wouldnt' fold it to the 3bet, then obv QQ+ become clear value-3bets.

    this one depends a little more on the stats, against opps who are positionally aware, and arent nitty tags,

    I can see some problems here - what is your plan cold-calling with small PP vs a TAGG open raising on the BU? Do you think set-mining is profitable vs his range?

    You seem to realize that villain's range is wide here, since you're 3bet bluffing him so much. What is your intent 3-betting 77-99? I'd rather do this here with 22-66 and call with 77-99.

    edit for moar stuff:

    I notice you're 3betting ATo+, but I think these are perfectly fine hands to call with, since villain is going to have lots of dominated aces in his range that he would fold to a 3bet.

    You can probably squeeze wider with like, AQ, KQ, AJ...
