$3r stars light 3b spot with A7o or avoid?
I had been pretty active and 3betting other active players, mainly IP, a few times with success.
TBH villain had just been moved to the table so I didn't have a read on him except that he's from Spain (so he's at least spewy): so I guess I should just be folding this specific hand when I'm gonna get flatted so often when OOP right?
Also, I think my 3b sizing is okay but specifically in low buyin tournies like the stars 3r should I be making it bigger to reduce the amount of times I'm getting flatted?
I posted this hand bc I feel like I've become too passive in the late stages (maybe its time to review some mtt vids), and I'm trying to be more active and put pressure on ppl while I have a good stack to do it with. But on the other hand the players in these low buyin mtts are usually so bad so you can just play completely straightforward and do pretty good, instead of getting in spots against players that are incapable of folding when you're light, attempting a bluff, etc.

Comments
and i think villain is very likely to flat here and float alot
the biggest problem with a7o is what to do when an ace comes
