Hg player is loose and bluffs a lot. When I check on flop, he usually bet. I thought that this situation was good to catch his bluff, but K on a river card was scary and he may have K. This is 3 bet pot. Should I call on river?

I would need some pretty specific reads on these players before I choose to 3-bet preflop here with AJo, since I definitely do not want to go the flop multiway with an spr=2.
If you had a read that HJ is too loose and will always bluff when you check, then go ahead and call I suppose.
But the problem with players that are too loose and overbluff is that they will show up with bluffs that don't make any sense. Like, I wouldn't be shocked if you called here and HJ said, "Good call, you win" before turning over 55. This is why you really need to be careful bluff-catching with A-high against players that do not understand ranges.
