SB vs UTG raise on Bovada

Hey guys. Trying to construct my range for SB vs a UTG raiser. I've also played around with flatting my whole range, but I'm starting to think its just better to be the aggressor preflop and to incorporate an optimal amount of bluffs. This prevents your opponent from realizing as much equity and increases your VPIP. Cause honestly if your flatting your whole range, then your just going to be folding hands like A4s preflop, where you can now be 3betting it vs utg having a bluff range.

On Bovada since its anonymous, sometimes I'm hesitant if I even need a bluff range. If I can just 3bet my value range and flat more medium hands, and completely be exploitable, but hey, its anonymous, so maybe its not that big of a deal? What about MP vs Btn? From a theory perspective you need a bluff 3bet range here too right? But then you still have to not only worry about the preflop raiser having the nuts but the other 4 opponents as well. Being anonymous, sometimes I question the value of even bluffing 6-max vs EP and MP raisers. The reason I was toying with flatting some big hands is because players are probably in general not overbluffing with 3bets vs UTG and MP raisers, so sometimes I feel like the EV of flatting AA or KK will just be higher than 3betting and them folding a lot. Maybe you could 3bet bluffs and flat your nutish type hands since its anonymous? What do you guys think?

Okay, with your flatting range in the SB? How low do you go? Here's what I have so far (9.35% of hands):
SB 3betting Range: AA/KK/AK/AJo/A2s-A5s
SB flatting Range: 77-QQ, AQo, ATs, AJs, KQs, KJs

How do you guys approach this on Bovada?
