Villain was 27/21 3-Bet: 5 after 160 hands. After he checks flop and turn I was assuming his range is capped and he propably gives up. When he called I was not sure but I guess it should be a 2nd barrel? If yes what is your sizing here on turn and river? Thanks.

Do you value betting or bluff on the turn?
I expect his range is weak after check twice, occasionally he can bluff catch. I will not bluff there with AQ. You have many other, weaker hands better for bluffing. For these types of bluffs sizing 2/3 seems better than 1/2.
With good read you can occasionally think about valuebetting with very small sizing on the turn, but not against agressive player, and overall it is not neccessary, check is easier and it is good option.

When villain checks on this kind of board we can go pretty crazy usually because they're just announcing to you loud and clear that they have ace high. I like the turn bet if it's a value bet given that villain has a lot of worse ace high that he will call here with and we also don't mind just folding out naked overcards that have 6 outs against us but I don't think that's your reasoning from how you described it as it sounds like you're trying to get villain to fold. If you're trying to get villain to fold you should be betting really big from the flop because you're trying to make AK hate life which it really isn't doing against 1 bet and also your combo selection is really poor because there's only 1 better hand that you're getting folds from.

Preflop-You can probably 4b this some. You are probably pushing a slight equity edge vs. a SB 3b range. If they aren't 3 betting enough, calling is obviously a fine strategy.

Flop-Most likely stabbing here. You crush most A high which probably has to defend. I would expect folds here at least 60% of the time.

Turn-As played, it's probably marginal. Can't be bad. I think I prefer betting turn when I have stabbed flop vs. when flop checks through. There are good turns for you where you can apply a ton of pressure/value bet. Not sure the 9 is a great card to stab on.

I would probably check this down as well but betting can't be that bad once bet turn I would probably bet river though it's specifically targeting AK tho tho I think it's quite large % of range on this stake
