Easy to say this with hindsight, but on the flop you should realise that your opponent doesn't have the stack to effectively triple barrel.

Given this you should probably maximise the fold equity with a pot sized bet on the flop. You can then make a biggish bet on the turn if you choose and save yourself $100 if he calls/pushes.

As for the river, a thinking villian (if he is one) may well conclude that you are pushing the bluff and str8 sides of your distribution only - as you are likely to check behind trips/2p here (no?). This increases the probability you are bluffing enough to make the smallish call with villians likely holding.

why do people want to bet the flop? you have 33 on a QT8 board vs 2 opponents

because we most likely have 2 clean outs, and if he's got 9J then we certainly have runner runner outs. we're not drawing dead, bet it up.....

no, in all honesty this is not the spot to make this play. I do this type of [censored] all the time, and this is what prevents me from taking the next step. I think the less you do this, the better off you are.
