Top pair top kicker facing a shove on the turn
1/3 nl. Hero recently sat down and knows little about villain, except that he’s open raised a few hands before. Villain has about $270. Hero has him covered.
Hero has As Kd in LJ. UTG straddle to $6. Villain in UTG+1 opens to $15. Hero in LJ 3-bets to $45. Only Villain calls.
Flop is Ac 8d 9d. Villain checks. Hero bets $35. Villain calls.
Turn is 2s. Villain checks. Hero bets $75. Villain quickly goes all-in for about $200.
Would you call or fold?

Yeah I mean your flop and turn bets should have been larger so you were jamming yourself. So you lose to two A8 A9 suited and 6 sets you beat 8 AQ for a start. I guess he might have 3 89s combos too. It's a call, sorry he had a set.

Ok and A2d but still a call

Raise more pre. Make it $50, or even better, $60. We don't mind getting folds with AKo. We want to fold out the players still to act to get HU with V. We want the pot to be bigger when we're IP.
C-bet bigger on flop. He shouldn't have many 2P or sets here. We can get value from all his non-believing pocket pairs.
Deuce on the turn is just a brick. There's $160 in the pot and $200 behind. Think we should just ship it.
As played, when V jams, don't think we can do anything but call for another $125, when we're getting 3.5 to 1.
Must call
Standard call. He’s unlikely to be bluffing, but you’re beating some hands he might shove for value (AQ/AJ) and have outs against others (98/A2). He could also be clicking buttons with AdXd or even worse draws.
You’re too shallow to fold TPTK in a 3-bet pot with no straights or flushes out there.
Board is pretty wet, I would jam turn myself.
A ~$50 preflop 3bet (offering poor IO of 8:1) sets up a trivial stackoff SPR postflop for me.
SPR is just over 2 and the flop is pretty wet. I'd mostly PSB the flop to jam the turn, but at this SPR and this board I think jamming is also fine. I really dislike small bets giving great odds when committed; leave that sizing to high SPR uncommitted spots, imo.
Again could just jam the turn (flop bet should have set this up better). Always uncomfortable facing a raise against our aggression but can't fold at this SPR / odds, imo.
