Default Floped set of 9s w/ preflop limp reraise

Ok, button is a fairly tight player: vpip of ~13%, pfr ~5-6%. No reads on BB


Absolute Poker 2/4 Hold'em (6 handed)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="666666">3 folds</font>, Button calls, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, <font color="CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

Flop: (10 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero calls, BB folds.

Turn: (6 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="CC3333">Button bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero caps</font>, Button calls.

River: (12.75 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

Final Pot: 14.75 BB



My questions are: Should I have raised the flop with my set? Typically with more people I always play sets fast, however in this case I decided to do the old smooth call then light up the turn since there were only 2 opponetns.

Also, the limp-reraise by the button smells of AA, KK, or maybe QQ. Do I slow down on the turn because of this? Obviously I'm only behind to QQ and KK, but the button must have thought there was a good chance I had Ax and maybe would not have 3-bet me with QQ or KK on the turn. I'm never worried about set over set and only slow down with them when a flush hits the board, but the limp reraise had me freaked out.

Should I have bet out on the river or check-called? If I would've been raised on the river do I 3-bet?

Any comments are appreciated
