my 3bet pre is definitely on the smaller side given that he minopenened and that we are slightly deep. his flop raise on this board texture is already kinda alarming but still he could be bluffing or value raising worse. but when he continues like that on the turn i am pretty scared and it seems much less likely he is bluffing or value betting worse.
what do you think? what would you do if he betted half pot on the turn and river?

Calling 3b oop like that can be a pocket pair a lot, he can have a lot of sets here.

Also, you 3b pre and called a x/r on the flop. Your hand looks super strong.

Unless you have a read that he's some kind of spaz, just fold 1pair.

im calling down, they can raise worse hands for value on the flop, and have a small bluffing range. I just call down here to keep air in.

Unless he is a total spaz, the only other hand I can see him doing this with that we are ahead of is KK and maybe AQ. If there is any indication he is a decent player I would prob take a deep breath here and try to find a fold.

Reason why u don`t ship it on the flop?
Stats, Notes, Readso on villain?

this is my first hand with Villain so not stats or reads unfortunately. but i think by shipping the flop you will run into a set or maybe twopair a lot. i don't think a lot of player will play Qx that way on the flop. i am a bit concerned about KK though. but he probably 4bets that a good amount pre flop oop. the board is relatively dry so its hard that there will be an action killing turn. also we are a bit deeper. so i like to potcontroll and try to find out where i am at at later streets in position. if he checks turn or river i still can value bet. and i give him a chance catch a pair or keep bluffing if he was randomly bluffing the flop.
