It was actually an open question, so thanks a lot for your answer and good reason in my view.
So I'll try to take it into account in my games. ☺️

I think it's mainly a flat. With 3bets generally being more polarised on button, I.e. stronger hands that can call 4bet (e.g. AK) and weaker hands that can fold (e.g. KTs). My sense is KQs is a bit too in between and is usually called to protect the flatting range. (Have not checked charts but that is my gut feel)

I've since checked the GTO charts I use and yes KQs is a pure flat (actually KTs is a mix).
Interestingly when it gets back to LJ they are meant to fold QJs. Not sure I ever fold this hand in game though!

In terms of the hand analysis, Marvinsytan played it pretty well up until the river. The preflop raise with pocket eights was standard, and calling the 3-bet from the button with position was also reasonable.
On the flop, Marvinsytan made a good decision to check and see what the aggressor, Tozsy17, would do. When Tozsy17 checked back, Marvinsytan could have bet for value, but checking back and keeping the pot small was also fine.
On the turn, Marvinsytan made a small bet for value, which was called by Tozsy17. Again, this was a reasonable play.
The mistake came on the river, where Marvinsytan checked and then called Tozsy17's all-in bet. With just two pairs and a flush on the board, it was unlikely that Marvinsytan had the best hand. It would have been better for Marvinsytan to fold, especially since Tozsy17 was representing a very strong hand with the all-in bet.
Overall, though, it's important to remember that poker is a game of ups and downs. Everyone makes mistakes, even the best players in the world. The key is to learn from those mistakes and keep improving your game. Good luck at the tables!"

What’s up mate? Glad to see you here playing and posting.
Preflop villain raises to 3.5x, although I don’t like versus this big sizing, I think this is fine.
What do we know about polarized sizings is that either players are holding top range or trash range: for cash tables most of times we are expecting top range and it’s very obvious, so let’s see a flop:
Villain checks OOP which can mean anything, and we got some poor equity having back door straight draw. If villain is type ABC, fit or fold our bet is good.
On the turn villain checks and our ability to bluff gets down, so I would be checking turn more often than betting, to try to realize my equity later.
On the river comes an overcard and villain bets 1/2 pot. It’s not a good idea to raise this river having showdown value and calling is okay, since we are narrowly breaking even.
Coming back to villain’s preflop raise, now it has a bunch of AJ, KJ, QJ, however given price was too low.
The hand was well played by both players. Nice hand and keep on grinding!
Best regards;

It was good that you check on the turn because you made villain thought that was weakness, and when villain leads on the river is a fair and simple call.
Well played.

Preflop is okay, and on the flop villain made a little mistake by raising us OTF: if villain had the best hands it would make a 4-bet, not call a 3-bet, most likely. And our call is also good because now we have all the nutted hands and villain has none of it.
This ace on the turn could be a scary card, for villain could’ve called preflop with some AA, but there are much more weak aces that he could find a way to overvalue, so our check here is fine.
On the river we most likely have the best hand and we want to extract value of losing hands such as AK, AJ, A5, A?, KK, JJ, and eventually 44.
My only doubt is about the proper sizing, maybe we could go for a little bit larger bet, like 70-80% of the pot, but then villain could fold a lot of aces and we don’t want it. By betting 1/2 pot we are going to force villain to call with a wider range, and that’s what happened.
The hand was played okay by both players, except villain’s blunder of raising the flop when he was clearly dominated in a 3-bet pot. In villain’s shoes I think we would be calling down this bet on the river too.
Thank you for posting and keep on grinding!
All the best luck to you at the tables!

You are being too kind to villain! Should have folded pre. Should have folded flop. Even on river he only beats bluffs.
Hero played it fine, though I tend to check top set on the flop oop, though when betting super small is good as it can induce like in this hand.

Yes, we can be folding ATo to a 3-bet from time to time. I don’t think it was a massive error to call it here. On the flop Hero bets 1/4, 1/5 pot, we are never folding our two overcards plus runner-runner. But raising was too fishy. Once we have committed ourselves to the point it’s hard to fold, because we are losing to AK, AQ, AJ and QQ, but there are other hands that Hero could be betting on the river.
Personally, I would have folded more preflop. ATo is a hand that we can open from UTG, but not a 100% of times and never calling 3-bets a 100% of times, unless we are facing some aggro-tard, which is clearly not the case.

Exactly its bottom of range to open from LJ so it's an easy fold v 3bet. I think calling is a big error, as villain will often compound the mistake by losing more post flop.
On flop it's just 1 overcard and if an A comes he could.lose to AK, AQ, AJ so it's just a fold. And these issues are why it should always be folded v 3bet, I.e. because it plays so badly post flop .

I like to 3-bet better when there's no limper in the middle, but if your image is tight we could try it from the best position sometimes, especially if the limper folds a lot preflop.
On the flop I like your bet, as you didn't polarize much preflop.
The turn is bad for us, because if your image is a tight range, V should raise this texture with strong hands like sets. Here V with QK is blocking an important part of your value range. This one seems to be a bit aggressive, because it denies you equity without any cards in the heart suit. But he is probably aware that your aggression comes from late position, which suggests that as well as values, there should also be some bluffs in your range.
I think it is possible to have a fold equity range in a scenario like this. Here it is better to call with 58hh to unlock the rest of the Wheel aces that could bluff you.
You also interfere with the top of your range btn when you can represent a bet induce. For that you could try a size a little smaller.

You are indeed a regular player and I’m glad you are humble enough to share your hands with us. Unfortunately there is no one else to comment your hands, just this learning fish right here and a couple of mates. So let’s work!
Many will say that is strange to play 76s from UTG, although is a complicated hand to play from EP, we can open it 30-40% of times, when players ahead are not 3-betting too often. We open to play with weak players in the blinds and that’s what happened.
When we call a 3-bet preflop we are not playing 76s anymore, we are completely playing our opponent. We must have in mind that when we call a 3-bet here we are already losing to a lot of hands and many of the draws we eventually hit postflop will be full of reverse implied odds: villain will have better straights, flushes and full houses.
This flop is better for the aggressor, but we still have equity so we call to try some move ahead.
On the turn our best move is to fold. Villain put all the chips into the pot, and we don’t believe we are beating any hand with our 3rd pair medium kicker.
We should never be results oriented. It’s not because it worked in this hand and you have won that you made the +EV move.
I’m also opened to criticism.
Thanks for posting.
Best regards;

on the turn our best move is to fold? after me putting $8.75, after me decided that I'm bet snapping all-in from opponent
can't DOET, that's basically lighting money on fire - rather take my equity and gamble than give my money to opp
i have too much equity, flush draw and a pair if he have 1 pair I can hit trips 2 pair and flush, he showed weakness by not betting on the turn

You need about 25% equity to call the turn shove. I think it's close as v a set you will only have 7 flush outs. Versus overpair you have 14 outs and then if he is ever bluffing a draw then you are actually ahead. There really arent many obvious 2 pair combos. Probably reasonable overall to call, especially as the x-shove seems more draw heavy than just continuing to bet turn.
Not sure if you should have bet turn or taken your showdown value, it's close. I probably prefer betting as you did
