You have a very big hand. I would consider check-raising the flop, but with nobody showing aggression pre-flop that could be dangerious.
Betting out on the flop, and getting raised with so many callers, I 3-bet for value.
I also 3-bet the turn for value.
I would also consider raising preflop. You have KJs in the BB with 5 limpers before you--you probably have an edge.

3 bet the turn you got the nuts with a nut FD you might was well get as much money in as possible... I say to 3 bet the turn to basically get money in the pot while you’re 100% correct that you’re ahead… any board pair can spell big trouble…

That only works if you can drop the hammer on a later street... can't do that in LHE, MP is likely to call your 3bet, get one more in while you can

3 bet the turn, UTG and UTG+1 still probably call you

Five bet the flop, that's right FIVE bet it. You have a super-duper monster draw.
