NL100 extracting with set on A high flop

What's wrong with just calling here? IMO 3betting is the same as a shove, meaning your raise is asking him, "Are you ready to play for stacks?"

We're about 80% sure our hand will still be best after turn. There would be ~40 in the pot so if villain leads turn 1/2 his stack will be in. Now he's committed and may not realize it.

I suck fwiw. Someone set me straight on why this is bad.

I don't think we're 3betting because we're worried about villain sucking out on us.

It's more a matter of a card coming off that kills our action. If opponent has AK here, for example, let's just get it in now when he's drawing almost dead.

If we call on the flop and a club rolls off, maybe he'll get cold feet and then we've let him off the hook.
