Unless I have a tight read on my opponent, I actually 3bet this turn routinely.
Villain may be check raising this turn with a lot that we still beat.
J, 8, Q, K, Hearts.
I have a hand that I believe is still ahead.
If Villain is semi-bluffing this turn, I want to gain value from him now before he misses.
Because we can't always guarantee he will fire again on the river.
And even if we are behind, we likely have 9 outs to catch up.
I push my edge here.

i don't like this because if they cap you have to call to see the river and call on any kind of two pair or straight you make. but by that point you really shouldn't fold the river with just top pair anyway because the pot will be huge.
it seems like you would get in more bets when behind than when ahead like this. and in reality, i think when you get c/r on that turn here you are behind way more often than you are ahead, but you still have to call down because you are ahead often enough when you consider your outs also.
