KJo in the SB

I've been taking a shot at NL400 for a few days. I've been running at 23/20/3 over a few thousand hands and am fairly happy with my game. This hand came up about halfway through a session. I was playing fine but still losing so I just want to know if this is standard.

Only reads that I have on villain is that he is really passive and probably wouldn't be calling here with anything less than 2 pair or a set. Theoretically I can guess that he would be reraising QQ to my 3bet and calling with TT or 44. I can't see him calling with QT or Q4 but he might want to since the idiot BB flat called my 3bet with what I bet is garbage.

Hmm... what are some good numbers for 3 betting? Pretty sure that's one of my leaks is that I 3bet too small.

$12-$14 = $42?
$15-$18 = $50?

all depends on style, I usually go for just over pot, esp if im OOP

Better. Pot sized at least and I prefer adding a bit to that if I'm OOP.
