3bet bigger and be willing to get it in. Your sizing allows some looser players to come in with speculative hands that feel committed to call.

As played I think you should lead out. I think its a close spot but you just can't really have 4bet -> check in your range unless you are going to shove over a raise. And you probably want to do that with kings aces maybe queens and your NFD blockers. Which means you have to bet this out or expect to be abused too often in this position. It's unlikely he has hit his flush (AKs or KQs only) I do often see KQs call 4 bets which is hugely minus ev but expect to see it kind of often at this limit. But you can get a fold from Anything without a spade and some made hands depending on the villian (especially if he has no flush blockers he can fold all his overpairs here sometimes if he is scared you are capable of barreling off your bluffs)

How can he 3bet bigger Hero is the original PFR....

His 4bet sizing is fine 100bb deep. 

Flatting a 4bet with KQs is not automatically minus EV, it highly depends on your opponents 4bet range, and the price you are getting preflop. 

Nobody is going to be abusing him often if he checks on a monotone board at 50nl..

The board is just shite for you, you are now near the bottom of your range. 

Villain has good equity with any offsuit broadway with a heart and any pocket oair with a heart. And there is now way you are folding those out on this flop. Betting here with practicly 3 clean outs (Qc,Qd,Qh) is just betting into oblivion.

You can just check/fold and not feel bad about it. And definetly dont overstress about being hyper exploited it just isnt gunna happen.
