Villain was 58/34 after 26 hands. Raise on the flop okay? Should I play in another way?

No, I think you played it fine. Villain could be betting anything from air to topset here, raising is the only way to find out where you stand. The board isn't too drawy, so letting him bet into you again on turn is an option, however I don't like to give them a cheap turn card. Raising was good.

Raising here is the standard play imo. But i agree with mookboi calling may be a good line against certain villains - it may be better to risk a turn card to have villain donk you one more time and you can raise him then (Though I would be careful on a A,J,10 turn) - i think this only works well against very aggressive villains though so wouldn't make it a standard line

If he's real aggressive, I think I like calling a little more. He'll fire away on turn again. It's 3-bet pot so this is underpair a lot. Just let him bluff another street. Maybe two more. I don't know if I'd raise turn... depends.

Against a 58/34 raising is good, against an unknown I think calling is better.

Very rarely if you're calling a 3-bet pot is AK good on that board.
