i 3-bet because i wanted to charge flush and straight draws that could beat me the maximum. i checked the river because i put the flop raiser on JT or some kind of 2 pair. she showed KJ and mhig. thanks for the replies.

In my opinion raising the flop is significantly better than calling and waiting for the turn. You might get hands with gutshots and backdoor draws to fold. The primary reason for raising, though, is that this board has plenty of stuff for people to like and so a raise here is good for value. Charge your opponents while they are still interested enough to play.

And betting this river is automatic.
