not read all the replies, so apologies.
4x open is too big 2-2.5x is plenty as it means you can raise lighter with less risk to your stack.
The shove on the board is probably only getting called by better, so you don"t give villains with weaker hands a chance to make a mistake/ pay you off.
In response to your opening question. I don"t think you are getting away from this, but you could have played the hand better as you reduced your chances of winning a big pot at every turn

It"s an interesting hand - if I am in the BB then I am normally calling your bet if I have 100BB.
Your bet does look like a telegraphed big pair or maybe AK or AQs.
I don"t think the implied odds are correct - paying 6k to win a max of 83k.
I don"t think the odds of flopping two pairs or better is good enough.
However with 17k in the pot - I would be more expecting something like 12/14k c-bet - or maybe a pot sized pot with the over pair.
If a normal c-bet is made then he can call with various draw and the implied odds pre flop hard to calc (in my head!)
Did you want the BB in the hand? Then raise to 4-5k : If you don"t then go all in.
Even if you raise to 4-5k here you have big problems here ... the board might help you escape as it develops ... hard to see how you avoid betting the flop and turn ... but you might just about retain 30k of your stack ...

Think most points have been covered. Anyone saying the 96 call is fine even if 300 bigs deep is wrong. It"s a terrible defend.

Bet sizing is the main lesson I reckon, and I"ve been guilty of similar myself. I think the logic of massive overshove thinking he has AK or AQ is wrong as in those situations you want to keep him in the pot rather than stop the action. If you"re putting him on that sort of range then three quarter pot bet is better IMO.
