Jeez. This never even occurred to me. This would have made my hand look vulnerable and would have allowed me to unload on the flop most likely. Crap.

This is the exact same principle as when you flop a set into the preflop raiser. You lead, and he's faced with a very tough decision with his possible overpair. No one is folding a nine or a weak overpair to one bet on the flop, let alone two pair or more.

Still, I think check-three betting the flop is just 'stooling' your hand. Since you made the first mistake of checking, just call the second raise.

Totally agree. In general, I'll bet 1/2 to 3/4 of the pot, which is about how I bet when I'm on a steal.

Does anyone here bet full pot or less than 1/2 pot?
