Depends on the opponents. Why did 4 people limp in? All playing speculative suited connectors but are too passive to raise with em? If so, then you gotta know if the guy after you will call if he has the flush draw. If you don't know either of these things, it's gonna be hard to tell you what to do here. Cuz if the guy immediately after calls, it may give the guys after with a flush draw the odds to call.

Edit: If it were me in that situation with no info, I'd probably value bet as big as possible.

Well, do you mean 4 times the blind? If he's the first one to act he certainly can't 4 bet. A 4 bet means to be the 3rd person to reraise.
But, here's my take on the question. I would first make sure it's top set before you get into a major pot battle, but bet no less than 2/3 the pot if it's a decent size, and no more than a full pot bet. It's way better to win that smaller pot then to make a small 1/2 pot bet and make it cheap for them to suck out on you. If you think they're on a draw, and they call and come up blank on the turn then fire a bigger bullet! But even I have had a top set on the flop with AA, bet about 1/2 pot that time, and some idiot reshoves with a 10 7 high flush draw and gets lucky, so you always have to be careful. You can't win against people with no respect for the game. They turn their garbage into gold all the time.

I think he was talking about trips not a set.

in poker there are good decisions better decisions things depend on opponents, you can't standardize betting based on hand strength always, knowing your opponents helps, you should bet a straight cautiously with a flush draw out there and if you have action before you that indicates strength consider just folding if it is a tight player, there are also many things you can do to confuse your opponents like over betting made hands if you are playing aggressive, anyways just be more specific because poker is an infinitly complex game and you need to have more factors of opponent history and board texture to better answer your question

Yeah you're right, my bad I just thought about it wrong, but I'd still play it the same way, but in this case you have to watch out for someone who has a set. You want to bet out any draws, but if you get into a pot battle in this situation it's best to keep it smaller in case you draw dead. It'll be much harder to put someone on a PP who's made his set in this scenario. I've lost plenty hands like that.

If everyone limps, double the pot. You get a caller theyre definitely on that draw, if the turn misses Shove

Is there only possible flush draw? Isnt there also possible straight draw? How high is your trips? But I think you should definitively bet more than "standard" half of pot. I would bet 80% of pot or potsize bet.

I agree with pocketacesa1, you need to be aggressive after the flop. if someone re-raises and you have top set, you have to shove. i've been in that situation a lot as well, worked against me many a time, but you can't fold.

i would bet 1,5 times of pot size, becouse you have too many oponnents and you have to make them pay to hit the nuts.
