Raise turn more to make it more likely he'll call you when you shove on the river.

I assume you got beaten here by TT or KK? It's odd, there are hands which play themselves because of what the villain is holding, and in a sense they're hard to analyse because if both of you want to get it all-in it sort of doesn't matter how this is achieved. I know I've played several hands where I congratulated myself on how my betting made him push all his chips into the middle only to realise that actually, he had/fluked the nuts and my play was aomost irrelevant. This feels a bit like one of them

I'd say you did well.
Got it all in with a set, nh no matter the outcome. Villian can easily have 2pair here, sucks if he had Q-J though
Though i did just realise his betting went $1.5, $3 then suddenly leapt to $13 when the king came... Makes me think he had Q-J and mayb best play was to just call?

With my luck villain has QcJc here, but NH regardless.

My first thoughts were mentioned repeatedly: raise turn.

1. A bigger bet can portray weakness; your min-raise is a clear pot sweetener (and betrays the strength of your hand, maybe).

2. The donk will call more, you're just too scared you'll lose him.

Um he didn't have KK nor TT here point of posting this for me, was finding out if I am getting max value for my good hands like this, albeit getting it all in on the river anyway. I just wanted to see what everyone thought of my lines before the river.

And if he did have KK here, wouldn't he bet more than $3 on the turn?

I wasn't referring to you, I was referring to your question about his turn bet size.
