Pre flop- 3bet or no with villain behind.

So here is one of my bigger leaks- it worked out this time,
I am guessing I should probably be 3 betting this vs EP-p but villain is a reg with a 21/17 and his opening range is super tight. the villain behind me is super wide on everything and I kinda just figured I get odds with. him in the pot.. But I think I should be 3 betting this probably 70% of time is my guess.

Then my turn bet, villain in BTN is known to be a lite call down player, maybe should jam and just do a small bet, then jam river, but then again with all the draws, and I block the FD, I was kinda going on the free roll to a club flush.

What are thoughts on PRE?

Pre-flop seems alright against a UTG open.
On flop you could just call as well. It will be tough to get better to fold or value with raising.
The turn I would bet around half pot and go for a shove on the river.
You have the 2nd nuts and you're hand doesn't need protection with the flush draw as back-up.
Also it's tough to get action off less than a straight in a multi way pot.

Cheers,

For KJs is a fold pre from CO vs UTG unless they have high VPIP in that position.
If someone behind me also has a tendency to call, then I don't want to be multi-way-in-the-middle.
OTOH, if you call, you can fold to a squeeze, or see a flop and hope for the best.

And "the best" is what you got.
Nice hand

I would 3bet pre to 7.5BB preflop or fold. As played, nice hand.

In general from CO I have 3bet or fold strategy but thats when only regs are behind. If there is fish on blinds then I dont mind flatting a lot.
As for turn - I think its ok - AsJs is only hand that is beating you and Jx are majority of hands that continue on turn so whatever. Also I think its ok from theory perspective because against two opponents you are betting there straight or nothing so there is no use in small bet. Nice catch with KQ, I think villain is printing there money.
