Re: 22 flops a set. Now what?
I would just lead the flop, which actually shows less strength than a checkraise. Plus, I'd rather not have the flop get checked through, especially since some of your opponents may be willing to call on the flop but not the turn.
With regard to the idea of checkraising a late-position bet: I don't think hand protection should be your first concern with this board, in this smallish pot. Sure, straight draws are possible, but you have a pretty good draw yourself in addition to most likely having the best hand. What I'd want to do on the flop is build the pot.
