This is one of many spots I face where Villian is pretty polarized.
He probably checks many 9x, draws and backdoor c/r bluffs that didn't pick up equity.
Betting big makes no sense im my opinion, but should I bet at all?
If I stab, I open myself up to double check-raises. Perhaps not on this particular board, but most boards.

Betting tiny here can get him to fold some draws that have equity against my hand.
I generally bet on the smaller side, to allow myself to bet a wider range for value and protection.
SB shouldn't have too many 9x to flat in the SB, and there are some draws he can have.
Does anyone consider folding the flop? i think I'm ahead for sure, though there are few runouts I can happily call down on. If I were to fold the flop, there would be little point in betting in the first place, right?
