I'm pretty sure he had you beat with AA or maybe 33. Or you split with his K. Either way theres nothing you could have done since you were OOP. I'd be very worried after the turn with his call. 3x and Ax would have you beat. But another K comes and you had to go AI.

Actually I think 33 is highly unlikely. If you start putting villains on quads and fold your boats this will lose you a lot of money. I think you are ahead here more often than not. At this levels he could have a flushdraw or just called the flop bet and turned an ace. Maybe he had ONE 3 and has the smaller boat, or you will split with him. Of course AK (and to a lesser degree AA) is possible here, but not extremely likely. You beat A3 though, as he is the SB and completed, I would def. not rule that out.

Bottom line is: There are a lot of boats out there, but with three kings your good/split the majority of the time IMO.

AA raises preflop here, always and forever. If he limped AA, hang your head and pay him off, you cannot think this weakly in NL. As for 33, you do not put an opponent on quads, this is a fundamental rule of NL, again you will be expected to pay him off. You are right about exercising caution after the turn however, if it bricks, you might have to slow down and hope for a cheap showdown.

I'm okay with it, but be careful on the river. The king makes your play automatic, but without it, you have a tricky decision; I would slow right down and try to show the hand down.

Raising preflop here helps you avoid trap situations like this. In a five way limped pot with top pair on that board, I am not very excited about my hand. Just call the flop.

If I held a 3 on that flop I am calling whatever flop bets you throw. I'll then raise the turn or the river depending on your turn bet size. If it is large enough, I'll call and let you hang yourself. (if I held a 3) you lucked out on the river but you need to be carefull with possible trips on the board.
