NL 100 - 3 barrel in 3betpot

http://wt.ag/RUdY60
Early in the session at anon tables .Villain is an unknown reg ,later in the session i found out that he is a very lag and creative reg .

Preflop : Some will like calling ,others will 3bet with these type of hands . Which one is more suitable vs an unknown reg ?
Postflop :Vs unknown reg it's just 1 barrel ?I'm thinking if i don't know much about his calling range preflop and how much is he floating it's better to keep it simple .

Vs a very lag player it's the 3 barrel in this spot the best solution ?With what type of hands can he call me on the flop and turn ?It is reasonable to think that he can call the turn with medium pp like 8x8d ?

I will first start out 3 barrelling there and see what happens, usually you will get a fold. if he shows up with a hand like JJ+ or K there its just too bad.

if he shows up with a hand like AJ or 88 i will make a note and next time i will 3bet wider and barrel for value very thin, 2nd pair or better

Preflop I think you can call so no need to 3bet.
Postflop your thinking is good if we are at lower stakes or playing a fish, as it will be +EV to just barrel off given that the King is going to be such a scare card for most of their range.
However, you have to consider that people are going to recognise that the king is a good barrel card, and if they see you barrel this hand (which has pretty much no equity vs better on the turn) they will assume your barrels are very unbalanced.
Basically, you can't bluff this run out vs anyone semi competent 100% of the time, so pick hands with more equity to bluff with (Adx Qdx 89s etc, or stuff which blocks his Kx range like QJ.)
Also I wouldn't even cbet this flop a lot of the time, it's not particularly good for your preflop 3betting range (I assume), and he's going to fold close to 0, and there are few turn cards which improve you. Balance the fact you will x/f a lot here by x/c or x/r with some stronger hands.

On the flop, obviously we have to x/f a lot of our range. To counteract this I know we have to x/c some stronger hands, but am not really sure which one we should do this with? Is 99 better to x/c than AA because there are less hands to vbet against with? or is AA better because it is less vulnerable. Would be interested to hear input on this
As I see it I think we need to have a big range that bets flop and x/c's turn and river too, (just looking at this from the standpoint of the flop and ignoring what actually fell on the turn) Basically would be interested to hear how people construct their ranges on the flop and turn as preflop cbettor, sorry for the derail and mutliple posts.

A4s in BB is a hand that i sometimes 3B and sometimes CC depending what i know about BUT.

after you go bet-bet i don't think too much of his river range is folding unless we think he is double floating but mostly i don't think people are so his river range seem reasonably strong as it will include a few Kx floats, some flushes, a few 7x. seems like you only fold some 88/99 combos that pealed the turn?
