i'd rather bet the flop or the turn and get called by a weak ace or even raised by a strong nine then to give this many free cards.

On the flop you absolutely want to give a free card. Let 77,33, JTs with a 3flush pick up something on the turn. You are way way ahead. This is one of the times when slowplaying is correct (which is becoming increasingly rare as hold 'em games become more and more aggressive).

You say he should bet the turn, but the turn was bet by the preflop raiser. Do you think he should raise? I say let the draws play for one bet, and I don't think it's close.

I wish OP didn't include in the post that the PF raiser had KK and rivered the K.
