Default 2-4NL - When do I take a stand?

The villian in the hand has shown that he doesnt mind 3-betting me preflop. We got it all in preflop once were he 3 bet me with JJ and i pushed KK and won the hand. With that being said, I still think he is 3-betting me more then he shoudl. Should I be folding, calling, or raising?

Against constant 3-bettors I am pushing this all day. You're not folding out a better hand but calling will just lead to tough situations and we have equity to back up when we're called.

Basically we have the best hand alot but it's vulnerable and he might continue a bluff or suck out on the turn so I stick it in.

calling is quite bad here due to hating yourself on the turn and river, and your image is perfect for a shove right now given previous hand

shove it like it's 1999

calling and calling any non-a/k turn can be good here cuz some ppl get real bluff happy after losing a big pot

if we assume villain is pfrring light, then i don't think we want him to see a turn card, i think his calling range of our shove includes quite a few draws, and he will sometimes fold a similar hand to ours (though granted not often prob)
