xback what are you doing when you get raised ?

Yes i agree. So we can Bet/Fold.
However is it worth betting to deny equity to say AK that has 15% vs us ?
And there are many hands that have worse than that.

When we do get x/r we are folding about 20% equity vs say AA.
And we could be folding the best hand when he has AJdd for example.

Nice argue.
Then if we X back this turn and the river blanks.
If he checks again we bet 1/3? X back again?
If he bets less than 1/2 on a blank river, we call?

Don't think general population in micro's 3-bets BB enough to make QT even close to a call. Flop float is similarly def not +EV against unaggressive micro villains. Would like a check back on turn and instead bet some bluffs that can use the fold equity more (since there are a lot of good rivers to continue bluffing i.e. diamonds, most straighty low cards.)

EDIT: Also, villain's range OTT is basically check-give-ups and hands that have you crushed.

Looks good.

If population did indeed x/r a lot here or actually had a decent xing range there'd be an argument to check behind, but I think getting some value and protecting your equity is good.

Could be a good argument to leave burden of defense on the last person to act preflop, although calling QTs with position against BB3B and getting a ok price with dead money in there cant be that big of mistake...
As played looks fine, could argue for turn check back
