Default QQ w/ K on the flop

I want some feedback on a couple of parts to this hand. The reason why I 3-bet the flop is because if my opponet does have a king he'll prob slow down on the turn which gives me a cheaper showdown, or if my opponett is on a draw I'm charging him the maximum. If he caps the flop I can also safely fold. The turn card I was planning to bet out if checked to, but the As is a scare card so i checked it down. Thoughts on the flop play and turn play here? I'm also not sure what to do it my opponet bets out on the turn. I would tend to fold to a turn bet with the A K and the 3-flush onthe board. Thoughts?

Good check on the turn even though you are probably still ahead.

Bet the river.

I like your line but I think you can bet the river for value and see a smaller PP.

i like the flop 3 bet and turn check, but i don't think 3betting flop "with the intention of folding to a cap" is any good here

I agree with the others: good line but I would bet the river for value.
