River ($1.66) Q 3 9 2 A

I felt the board was dry enough to go for a merged X/R line here, primarily for value and protection.

OTT should we have gone bigger (pot?) repping the flush after our X/R & at the same time turning our hand into a semi-bluff with picking up some equity from the flush draw, primarily to attack AJ and KJ and maybe even get value from A9/K9? Or check? (I'm a bit confused how to continue such a merged raising line OTF with a middling hand when called in general...)

With the flush and the A hitting and a lot of V's calling range OTT and thin-medium value betting range OTR having us beat, do we just fold OTR with such a small sizing? I see a lot of bs bluff-bets on NL5z on stars when checked to, so this makes folding difficult, but this one felt very value heavy.
