Bet the pot on that flop. It'll make your other decisions easier.

plz explain ur thinking more, ppl who pot flops like that always confuse the crap out of me.

Whole hand is ugly, you don't check raise enough on the turn, you check call a super-weak bet on the flop, and then try to make a thin valuebet on the river. Yuck.

Hero has a set. I think it's best to bet strong here, given the texture of the flop and it's better to find out where you are in the hand while it's still cheap. If villain calls, the turn isn't that much scarier and if villain is on a draw - which I think he is - it's best to charge him the maximium (by betting pot again) to get there.
