Bet bet bet... no question about it... if you check you're letting someone draw for free, plus you don't know where you stand. Raise to 175-200 range. I like your hand here.

Thanks guys.

I did bet 200, and the field folded. I was just frustrated that I didn't get paid off for my set, and wondered if it was reasonable to take the chance on the turn to let someone catch up enough to lose some money. My first thought was much the same as yours.
