Hand occurred
early in the multi-fifty on FTP. Both of us have > 80bbs so were pretty deep.
My reasons for action are as follows:

Preflop: I 3 bet as the opener has
been active on the button and has generally raised first in a lot. I think there
is definitely the option of just calling and keeping in some weaker hands that
he raises in late position so my first question is whether the 3 bet or call is
optimal in this situation.

Flop: I flop well without hitting my hand and
choose to bet a solid amount. I am c-betting 100% of the time here to try to win
it early. Villain chooses to 3 bet to 1,020. At this point I think he can be
raising with air (assuming I missed), a straight draw, two pair, a set or even a
made straight (although I think he might just call if he has a hand like JT
here). In hindsight this looks a tricky spot.

My options are to call or
jam here as I think folding is weak and my hand does have value against bluffs
and other draws. If I call then I think he probably jams the turn a lot and I
cannot call turn. If I jam then I could win the pot here and still have the semi
bluff value if he calls. What option would you guys take here in this spot?

Thanks in advance.
Trevor.
