The power of reraise

This is the concept behind 3 betting a polarized range. Most players only 3bet with QQ+, AK. In today's aggressive game you can easily do this with JJ+ AQ+ and still be ahead most of the time. You will get into trouble when you start 3betting with hands that are easily crushed by villains 3bet calling range. Hands like Ax are going to be out kicked so often that 3betting with Ax is not profitable. The same thing is true for hands like KJ KQ or middle suited connectors. This is why it's recommended that you 3bet a polarized range. Only the top hands and the very bottom. So you'll be 3betting JJ+ AQ+ for value and 3betting 23-56 as a semi bluff. If you bet the low range you are least likely to get stuck with a hand that won't hold up because it's unlikely any of the cards you hold are in the villains hand if he calls. You have 2 live ones. You also increase your implied odds should you connect with low flops. You also increase the fold equity you have when your opponent misses with hands like AJ+ or KJ+. Villain would have to assume you have a high PP if you 3bet pre and cbet the flop on a low board.

This is all really good advice. I would agree that you have to keep a polarized range. I think you 3-bet range is too wide. With that wide of a 3-bet range preflop, I'm sure others will catch on if they are watching.
