Default $2/4 3 bet pot

Don't have ptracker running so no HH or stats. Villain is playing at a few of my tables and seems taggish. Not exceptional but not overly fishy; probably a small winner. He's 3 bet me a few times on the 3 tables we are playing together. TAG image for me.

I raise pocket tens to $16 on the button, he makes it $48 to go...I start the hand with around $350 after losing a small pot the hand before and not reloading. I think 3 betting sucks here becuase if i raise to $140ish I'm pretty much getting it all in praying for AK against this guy if he jams. I elect to call the raise (is that okay?)

Flop: 7s 9s Jd

I have the 10 of spades, FWIW. Villain leads for $72...hero?

For value? or do you think he's folding QQ-AA here a lot?

EDIT:
Oh [censored] I didn't realize he had GS as well, ya I like shoving.

if youre going to call preflop you should get it in on this good flop. if you even consider folding here you shouldve folded pf.

I'm thinking he folds QQ+ somewhere around never. That said, Hero is ahead a lot of the time and you have outs if you're behind. Shoving saves you from having to mess with a potentially tricky turn, and also sets up other hands where it's a clear shove (spades, set, AA).

Edit: Flat calling pretty much says "I have a marginal hand that can't stand two barrels".

shoving is best here IMO, it puts the pressure on him, doesnt leave us clueless on the turn and leaves us outs if he calls with a better hand which this bet may fold out

So - doesn't that mean you can call flop and dissappoint him when he pushes turn with AK and you instacall? (Not saying that calling > raising, I think both are viable here.)
