Default $3.4 - Flop nut flush, multiway pot

I flopped the nut flush vs 3 other players.
I did not know how to play it.
I tried to c/r it on the flop, but the everyone checked and the button min-betted.
Then I did not know what amount to raise if raise at all. How would you play this hand and why?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (10 handed) by Hand Converter CG

MP1 (t1480)
MP2 (t1150)
MP3 (t1460)
CO (t1770)
Button (t1470)
SB (t1420)
BB (t1500)
UTG (t1500)
UTG+1 (t1750)
Hero (t1500)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t60</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, CO calls t60, Button calls t60, SB calls t50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: (t260) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, CO checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t20</font>, SB folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t100</font>, CO folds, Button calls t80.

Turn: (t460) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t300</font>, Button folds.

Final Pot: t760

I would have called the flop to encourage one of the donks to come along with a random 3 or 7, or heart. You have the nuts and dont want to be giving people reasons to fold. I may have led small into the pot, like 80.

I would try to represent an another hand by betting t200 on the flop the 1st time and hope that one of them like their hand so much that he would push over us..I think this is the most profitable way

flop is a call, let em try and catch up to a good second best hand. You might raise if you feel you'll get called, which is quite possible at the 3.40s with a lot of bizarre holdings, but just to be safe I'd call. As played the turn is a dream card in hopes that someone was chasing some goofy straight, I'm fine with the bet there.

Lead flop for sure. More people are likely to call your t100 bet than a t20 bet AND a checkraise. Plus, if you're raised, you should have a very easy time of getting it all in.

I think you get attempted bluffs a lot on this flop at this level, so I don't mind the check. Rereading my last post it didn't come out right, basically what I'm saying is with 3 to a flush and now 4 to a straight on the board, there's a great chance that either someone has a worse flush, a straight, or will try to bluff raise. That's why I like the turn bet.

We don't like blowing people away with a check raise on the flop.
Lead lead lead. Get chips into the pot.
