How do you maximize this hand.

I would lead the flop.

So would I. One good reason for betting out with a monster is that it gives my opponents less information than a power sequence of, say, check-call flop and check-raise turn.

When you normally play the flop aggressively, you shouldn't need to slowplay very much with monsters. Keep your opponents guessing.

You have 5 opponents who probably like to call. Bet out and let them.
