Is there value in 3betting river?

Has 50NL really gotten to the point where people are playing back by 4betting? Granted it happens, but choosing that line against an aggressive player with no info on their 4betting tendencies seems like the wrong strategy. I feel most people will 3bet loosely but are pretty nitty with their 4bet ranges (AA,KK,AK). Thoughts?

Only 4 betting KK+ & AK is a leak that would be exploitable by 3 betting a wide range knowing that they will only 4 bet that range but I've found agressive players, players with a high 3bet stat, and check raise stat, will often 3 bet a wide range of hands and AQ plays well vs all of these players ranges also. Generally speaking. You must know who your opponent is before doing anything.

Against unknown OOP AQ is either a 3bet or fold. Never just a call.

I know it's exploitable I'm not saying that what we play, I'm saying it the standard for a bad player even with tight stats at the micros.

Not sure what AQ has to with anything? Are you say V will 4bet that? Either way my point is I need to see someone 4bet with some frequency before taking this line...would you agree?
