The reason we 3-bet larger is because we're out of position, we want more money in the pot and we want to deny odds to speculative hands. We're not raising to get away from bad flops, but because we want more money in the pot so we can play for stacks on flops we like. This is certainly one of them.

If we raise larger, it probably induces a shove from AK. instead it allows him to play in position perfectly.

i think we're looking at:
AK that flopped a straight
Kx that's chasing
Adxd turning his hand into a bluff
Playing big pots at small stakes.
