you allow villain to play optimally...that is what is wrong

Elaborate, please.

Villain most likely folds unless he has Ax, in which case we're drawing to nothing besides our set or a runner runner nut flush. Betting allows him to fold hands we're ahead of and call when we're dominated. Basically c-betting=bluff here. Let villain do the bluffing.

But we do charge a flush draw, right? (Thanks for the elaboration.)

Drain, suited cards in a reraised pot make up a very slim percentage of villains range, especially when the A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] is on the board and we hold the K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. What could he have here that would play it like that preflop, J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]?
The draw really doesn't concern us at all.

Also, betting the flop sucks as does the 'because it's standard' line of reasoning.

Oh, I actually missed the reraise. Thanks for the clarification, though! I need them; my name is not just a ploy.
