BTN: 252.5 BB (VPIP: 21.95, PFR: 17.07, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 42)
SB: 113.5 BB (VPIP: 35.00, PFR: 15.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 20)

UTG: 104.5 BB (VPIP: 50.00, PFR: 50.00, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 2)
Hero (MP): 425.5 BB
CO: 220.5 BB (VPIP: 33.33, PFR: 33.33, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 3)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has T♦ T♠

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, CO raises to 9 BB, fold, fold, fold, Hero calls 6 BB

Flop: (19.5 BB, 2 players) 9♦ 5♣ 8♥
Hero checks, CO bets 13 BB,

Should I fold on the flop? Should I just be set mining with TT?

Of course you should call flop. What if CO 3b Ak for example?

Preflop you can call but folding is not wrong since you would be playing OOP.
On the flop TT is too strong to just set mine. Here you have overpair. It is a clear call.

I agree.

The only scenario in which we can fold is if villain is 3-betting preflop very polarized and we know it. In this case, our equity is probably too low (his bluffs hit) to continue.

Would you guys ever fold preflop if we knew villain is 3betting very tight in this spot?

Probably not. We can then setmine for 6bb with 210bb more to go. It is extremely valuable to know what villain is holding when he doesn't know what we have.

Nope.. We are deep so easy setmine call then.

I am really not happy with calling a 3bet OOP with TT preflop. But I understand that Hero is very deep here.

Of course not. We have it all to set mine here.

I would call OTF and x/f OTT if we doesn't improve and villain continues his aggression

Won't fold. You would most probably go to a 50/50 range OTF plus the opportunity to set mine when being deep.

as a general rule our hand strenght is good to for 2 streets of value

folding flop with overpair and backdoor straight draw is an exploitative measure.... if we have info about villain that he has low cbet , low 3bet, nit , etc

Even if we have that info we cannot fold on flop...
