Is There Any Reason Not to 3bet This Flop? Is There Any Reason Not to 3bet This Flop?

I've been thinking about this hand since I played it and don't know if this is a get it all-in spot on the flop if I can. I have a strong hand but not the nuts with a redraw to the nuts. Is there any reason not to put in a big raise here? It felt criminal to not get more money in. Donk the turn, donk the river as played?

What do you make of villains flop raising range? Is he capable of making this play with Q8 or a set, or is it just always going to be KQ, maybe sometimes KK/QQ with K/Q high FD? If they are capable of raising flop light for value/semi-bluff then sure, jam flop. Otherwise just makes no sense to put in more money - having the low straight is meaningless vs the nuts and only has value against a bluff.

Def. donk turn. River is kinda interesting - not sure how much value in a donk as your only bluffing hand is Q8 and so it's hard to see villain calling with KQ now. Plus K is a bad pair card bc if we know he had KQ a lot it's slightly more likely that he has a FH.

Really couldn't say on villain's range. I don't recall who it was against. Leaning towards a reg. Honestly there's so many plays this pool makes that don't make sense. Lots of little bluffs here and there but not too many people pulling the trigger on multiple streets. The only reason I even questioned about reraising was the nut flush draw as backup. I'm good against sets and villain could have a pair plus FD or being using his position to try and put me in a tricky spot. Lots to consider I guess.
