Default 1/2: KQs in SB vs unknown BTN opener, 3bet?

eff. stacks $200:

Hero is SB w/ K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
3 folds, BTN raises to $7, Hero?

Do you 3bet here? I just thought about this situation. Of course, I am ahead of a button opener's range, but if I 3bet, I fold out all hands that are dominated by KQ and will likely be playing against a hand which is dominating my hand which leads to massive reverse implied odds. If I just call the preflop raise, at least I can play against a bunch of hands that I am dominating.

What do you think?

If I have been 3-betting his button opens a few times, I'd definately 3-bet here. If I haven't, I just call and mess around on some flops I miss if its HU.

I think you are right that villains (most unknowns, tags) play close to perfect to a first 3-bet (they fold hands we beat and continue with JJ+, AK. They might fold AQ.
