would you lead here sometimes?

Call pf getting great pot and implied odds. In general, I check fold the flop. Even if I had a great read I check/fold and find a better spot to bet. I think too often with a nice stack like you have, I'm too aggressive in spots like this when there are better opportunities to pick up chips. I like protecting my stack vs maybe getting AQ or an underpair to fold. You were given great odds to flop a set, you didn't hit, just let this go.

If the flop was K9x or QQx I'd be more apt to lead out. With 2 big cards I don't like the flop. This type of situation, risking decent portions of a solid stack is something I'm going to start cutting out in ss mtts, especially if I'm at a table that lets me rob them blind.
