Default Flop topped set, Pot is huge... now what?

Game has been going for several hours, decent line up, this is the biggest pot of the session so far...

UTG solid Lag, more of a TAG this session
BTN tag playing solid, getting out of line at the wrong times.
SB: No read
BB: Limp machine, will limp anything and play a very passive line post flop, hard to put on a hand.

Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $40/$80
5 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is CO with Kh Kc
UTG raises, Hero 3-bets, Button caps, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls, Hero calls.


Flop: 8h Kd 9d (20SB, 5 players)
SB checks, BB bets, UTG raises, Hero calls, Button folds, SB calls, BB folds.


Turn: 5h (13.5BB, 3 players)
SB checks, UTG bets, Hero raises, SB calls, UTG calls.


River: 6c (19.5BB, 3 players)
SB bets, UTG folds, Hero calls.


Results:
Final pot: 21.5BB


Be gentle...

I'd 3-bet the flop. The pot's huge, you have the nuts, and there's a reasonable chance of you getting drawn out on. Go nuts. Never stop betting on the turn. Cry on the river.

That is all.

I agree.
At this point, you don't care too much about pumping it.
Just bet raise 3bet etc.
step on the gas dude, pots huge already.

Lets say you change one of the diamonds to an off suit card making the board rainbow...

same approach I assume?

WORST CASE: you still have more than half the equity, with 3 players. The point everyone is making, is that every dollar you put into this pot, is majority yours. VERY high profit for each bet made... so make them [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]


Remember, the best way to disguise a huge hand, is to bet the [censored] out of it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 50.692% 50.96% 00.00% 3295513 0.00 { KcKh }
Hand 1: 44.987% 45.23% 00.00% 2924635 0.00 { JdTd }
Hand 2: 04.320% 04.34% 00.00% 280869 0.00 { 8h8s }

I fear that board on the flop waaaaay too much to just call. Not that it will very often change the outcome of the hand or anything, but at least I can think that I did everything to insure I win this big pot.
