Adjusting to 25NL zone BB 3bet with KJo

I noticed that GTOwizard has you continue sometimes when you raise KJo and face a BB 3 bet of 13bbs. I am wondering about a process I could use to decide if I should follow GTOwizard or adjust given that the 25NL Zone pool has a different range than GTOwizard (and uses a different size). My first idea is to use pokertracker to see what the actual range of the pool is. I'm not sure if there is a great way to do this in pokertracker. The hand range visualizer seems good but I think you can only get that to work on your own range and not your opponents. So, I guess the next best option is to set up some filters and look at the 3 bet percentage hand by hand.

I would expect to find that the 3 bet range of the 25NL zone pool is weighted more towards premium hands which I think would make me want to pure fold KJo.

Maybe that is just the end of the discussion for practical purposes. But what if the range was pretty close and I wanted to find an answer in a more rigorous way? What would my next steps be? Well, I don't have a preflop solver, so I can't just input the two ranges into a preflop solver and get an answer. Well, I think what I would do is use a solver with the BB 3 bet range that pool uses and my calling range including KJo, then solve for every flop and look at the EV KJo has averaged across all flops compared to cost of calling. Except I wouldn't actually do that because I don't really know how to do that and I'm sure it would take quite a long time. So basically that would be the end of my analysis.

So, two questions for you. Do you pure fold KJo in this pool? Do you have any thoughts about how to improve the process I would take to come to that conclusion on my own?
