Did I overplayed my hand on the river. Should I fold it cause I'm not sure if he will play it this way with second pair and also I don't expect from him to call with weaker ace

You 3bet pre as a bluff. When you hit OTF, why didn't you cbet?

As played villain could be easily stabbing turn and river because you didn't cbet flop but still calling is close. Maybe it would be better to fold OTR with this weak hand.
Imo in this hand not cbetting OTF was a mistake that made us face difficult decisions on later streets.

Why mistake, shouldn't we force weker hands to fold if we cbet.

By betting we charge draws and protect our hand from them and villain could call our cbet with some weaker Ax, Jx, maybe some combos of QQ, KK too. We get also info about where we stand with our hand. I would bet the flop and expect some folds and then just give up. It is better than check calling the turn when he bets.

So which does sound better:
Bet flop, check behind turn and decide OTR
or
Check flop, maybe face a stab OTT and call it without knowing if he is bluffing or betting his Kx for value or having nuts and then seeing river and not knowing what to do?

We should be cbetting this flop100% of the time.
River is a fold. All Ax that villain has are smashing us.

There are draws possible - SD, FD that we must charge. And as a 3 bettor you should attack Axx boards.
