Flop Analysis
Checking is mandatory. This board heavily favors the LJ's range, which contains all the overpairs and strongest top pairs.
While we have a gutshot, leading into a flush-completing turn card is a major error that gets punished by the LJ's uncapped range.

Calling is correct; we have a gutshot to the nuts and are getting excellent pot odds to see a turn.
Leading here is a significant mistake. The 3s completes the flush, a category of hands the LJ has in abundance after betting the flop.
Note: Leading into a flush-completing turn card is highly exploitable; we should check to realize our equity or bluff-catch.
Once raised, we must fold. Our gutshot has very little equity against a range that now contains made flushes and sets.
