$250/$500a: 4bet Pot With Top Set- I May Want To Get Fancy

SB: Bttech86: $107279.60
BB: OMGClayAiken: $87956.90
CO: patpatpanda: $108296
BN: durrrr: $44393.10
Preflop ($750.00) (4 Players)
OMGClayAiken was dealt 9 K A A
patpatpanda folds, durrrr raises to $1500, Bttech86 raises to $5400, OMGClayAiken raises to $18100, durrrr calls $16600, Bttech86 calls $12700
Ranges:

Tom is VERY wide from the button here & Ben will know that & 3bet maybe 15-20% here

Ben & Tom will assume 4b my range is: AAxx, AKKxss, strong KKxxds, AK(QJ/QT/JT)ss, 9876+ds
Flop ($55050.00) A 6 3 (3 Players)
Bttech86 checks, OMGClayAiken bets $8888, durrrr folds, Bttech86 calls $8888
Turn ($72826.00) A 6 3 2 (2 Players)
Bttech86 checks

Flop seems relatively standard to me, but comments are welcome.

We have 80% pot left in stacks. Perhaps this is more simple than I'm thinking, but decisions in pots this huge are a very large contributor to your EV.  It's important to get them right.

Ben will be defending against my flop cbet reasonably wide, given that he has 7:1.  He's not going to go crazy because obviously this board is great for my range, but he will still have some weak hands. This means that along with legitimate hands, I think his range will consist of 6xxx, 75xx, QQxx, or even J987 with double backdoors, given the price he's being laid on the flop.

I believe that all options are viable: bet tiny, bet small/medium, jam, or check.

I wrote out my reasoning and then deleted/saved it because I'd like to see what people think without influencing them too much.
