Preflop
3BB open is very large with these stack sizes. Personally I go 2,5BB.

Flop
As others have said, this is a very dry flop, where its extremely difficult for him to have hit. Especially when you have top set blocking most of the top pair. But with that being said you picked a nice small sizing, and he is supposed to float you a lot on a board like this, when you go small. So most likely this is just a player, who need to have a hand to put chips into the pot. And in that case you are not getting value from him by checking, unless he improve on the turn, which most of the time he wont.

So its just one of those, where we need to remember, that poker is a long term game. A lot of the time we will have hands like A high or K high on this board, and then its absolutely fantastic, if the opponent will simply give up to a small C-bet, even when he has position. An opponent like this will let you win many small easy pots, which more than compensates for the fact, you wont get paid, unless you put some kind of perfect cooler on him.
