Default Re: flopped the set...then shot my wad. please advise...

If you're really concerned about draws on that board, offering 6:1 odds to see the turn with a weak ass flop bet is not the way to handle it.

There's 5 players in the hand. If it's checked to you like this, make a real bet - half the pot or something. Once MP does the dirty work for you, call and c/r the turn. The way you played it I think you look weak enough that he'll bet the turn if you check to him. I'm not too worried about giving a free card.

I'm usually pretty happy to take down nice pots like this on the flop, but you're hand is very strong and the board isn't overly scary - you should try to milk this one a little more.
