Re: I am pissed (not high content, but not exactly low)
Standard. Check-raise is also fine, even slow playing the flop entirely against the right opponent (assuming it was guaranteed heads up) would be fine in moderation.
Flopping a set and having it go nowhere is pretty common, not exactly grounds for a post.... (even in BBV).... Decent players tend to shut down a bit when 5 players see the flop for a raise. You're gonna have to run into 33, a strong K or a nice combo draw to have a chance at stacking most players here.

Re: I am pissed (not high content, but not exactly low)
I dislike it. I only lead into PFR's with sets when I know they for sure have an overpair that'll pay off or when I know it'll look like a draw of some sorts and get raised. The only overpair from the original raiser that'll give action is Aces. Kings have you crushed, and Queens is mad you caught a King on the flop.
A big bet will also slow down hands you want in. I think I check-raise. I want someone to bet like $12, get a few calls, then I can gunnnnn it.

I believe leading at this flop is FAR superior to checkraising for several reasons. You don't want to give a free card in 5-way action with a flush draw out there, check-raising is scarier and may force a hand like AK to fold after very little action, and finally if somebody makes a good sized raise you can get it allin on the flop (which is very good).

I very much like to survey action in multi-way pots before I act. The check-raise can kill action from AKo, but so can a $30 lead from a decent player against another decent player. How often are you stacking someone with TPTK here anyway? My point is, I don't have a standard play after checking. It depends on the action that follows the check.

Re: I am pissed (not high content, but not exactly low)
From my experience, from both sides, it's much much harder to get away from TPTK if you are lead into on the flop

Betting full pot is insane to me, though. I rarely lead for a lot more than half. I want my bet to appear as a weak lead for a cheap turn on a flush draw so I can get raised big. Leading for less also lets missed hands, like UI AKo and underpairs, raise trying to represent the bigger hand. They'd be much less inclined to do this against a PSB.
