Default TPTK vs extreme scare flop

The scenario:
You open-limp A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Two more, plus the BB, come after you.

The flop is 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

What's your plan
-If the BB bets?
-If the BB checks?

I check call the flop. And Bet/Raise the turn assuming a blank falls.

This is what I would do with a standard scare board. Say A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img],J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img],2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. You're not folding out many hands on the flop, and your equity will go way up or down on the turn.

However, in this case, you could probably fold out lone clubs 2-6, and clubless 1 card OESDs. It's quite possible that you could knock out a lot of hands with many outs against you on the flop.

I'm wondering whether people think it's worth investing the bets to do that, or whether it's still a wait for the turn scenario.
