What if he's got a hand like AK? If you only bet $3 then he's getting the correct price to call. You need to at least bet enough to make it incorrect for him to draw out on you if you're ahead.

Edit: Too timid, yeah.

You typically call getting 3:1 with nothing but overcards? Good luck with that.

Holdem Hi: 990 enumerated boards containing 4s 8c 8h

Typically I don't, but if he knew what you had, it would be a correct call.

I just prefer to make a little larger bet in this spot, typically about $5, which is also what I'd bet if I had an 8.

You realize you can't count on him giving you the turn AND river for $3 right?

No. You only get to see one card for that price. It's only correct is opponent is all in.
