Villain in Question is a multi tabling TAG. (20/14) He has been 3 betting my button opens moderately, like 1/5.
I want to post both hands they are vs same opponent on 2 different tables. I feel that by posting the hand entirely will help me understand if my play is correct from start to finish.
I currently feel a big leak/flaw in my game is playing correctly in 3-bet pots.

Here after calling pre-flop, I intended on floating him on the flop and playing my hand like a TT or JJ and seeing what he did on the Turn. If he checked i was planning on firing. But once he fires $18 I feel my only play to raise All-in and I don't think I have FE. I am not even 100% that pre-flop is standard tho. Thoughts?

On this hand I felt that villain was solid enough that if I bet the flop he was not going to give me credit for a Q and possibly raise me off the hand. I felt that c/c would be best as if did that, then there would be no way that he would continue to bluff the hand. Thoughts?
Thanks.
