$2 NLHE 6-max: Flopped Quads in a 3bet pot

This is something I thought about during the hand and then I thought maybe (Just maybe, by flatting it would give my hand away)...Then I thought well by raising (this might give my hand away), but then the 3 bettor actually bet such a large size+left himself with little left that I thought they wont fold Ax here at all vs me so I could re-pop it...

So my question is could I not have overbet jammed this flop and looked bluffy?

Still having a hard time getting these hands converted with there stats so if anyone knows, why this is happening plz let me know+how to fix the issue

I think you are over-thinking things way too much especially for the limit you are playing. When you flop a hand this strong I think the correct play is pretty much always to just call (slowplay) and let them fire some more and/or make a better 2nd best hand.

So a flat is the best option then? Won't that give away the fact I could have a 9 potentially?

I'd raise if he's only betting an A.

Id shove if he is only betting an A.

So that makes

1 raise
1 flat
1 over the top shove

I love all the answers, so basically more or less I can do anything I really choose to do with a monster hand such as this boats+

He's gonna cbet no matter what he has so a call is best imo. Just let him fire again and get his stack. Nice flop!

Flat. If he's willing to call a raise on the flop, he's also likely to fire or call a bet on the turn. So you don't gain all that much by raising; basically, you get him to fold the lower end of his range. Since you have his entire range crushed, you don't want him to fold. If he doesn't improve on the turn and check-folds, you win the same pot you would have won by raising the flop. So flatting the flop is basically a no-lose, might win more play.
