Just do the math...

I'd fold pre though

I dont like 3bet w/ a hand that has no value.
The call is probably neutral EV, your odds are 2.3:1 and you have probably 9 outs clean + 3A.
I don't mind calling if you decided to 3bet A3o.

I don't like this 3bet at all unless he's been getting way out of line and you plan on stealing/shutting down if called. I think calling and folding are both OK and player dependent. Against said villain I'm folding.

Fold pre. I'd CRAI on this flop because of this specific situation - and we don't mind a free card, plus most aggro people love stabbing at 3bet (and really any) pots when the PFR checks to them.

If we're playing this hand past pre I really like this line.

Re: Can I call here? Blind War
 

you have to call now, you nearly have odds versus a made flush, and you almost always have three pair outs (usually the A but he could have e.g. AxQh in which case your 3 is live).

crai is a million times better though

LFTV

could you elaborate on why you like a CRAI on the flop? What perceived range do you think this gives us?

Also, do you have any thoughts on preflop? I was thinking we have decent FE here due to villains wide opening range and his position...
