QJo BB vs Reg BTN
Hey guys, first time posting hope it's okay ^^
Villain is a reg over 200 hands, 27/24, fold to 3bet 72% but it hasn't converged yet so take it with a grain of salt.
QJo in the BB, reg opens BTN, I decide to 3bet. Thinking about it now I feel like calling is actually better here, by 3betting we get called by a range that dominates us, and we fold out hands that we beat. How do you guys play this spot preflop?
On the flop I had two lines in mind, either small flop / big turn to get some hands to call/fold, or bluff in one street with a big sizing. Except I clearly didn't have enough fold equity to justify it according to my analysis.
Here's the detail of my range filtering, let me know if it makes sense to you: https://www.grindlab.gg/en/shared/69cd95...
So what's your approach when you're in that kind of spot with not enough FE but still decent equity?
Curious to hear your thoughts!

Like you said, Qjo is not an ideal 3 betting candidate being unsuited and often dominated when called. That said, if he is overfolding like a lot of regs. we are still printing with a 3 bet.
OTF I would bet smaller,, with the plan to bet every turn card, and bluff most rivers if the turn is a club.
