That silly TV hand.....

Hi guys
I sent this hand to the programme last night. The betting made the play straightforward. However i wanted to ask about different scenarios. Unfortunately this part didn't get through by some honest mistake.

   Would you give me your opinion on how to play/bet in two different scenarios please...

 A) if all checked around to me...(i think 1/2 pot bet to protect v flush and get money in? No?)
 B) say there was  1/2pot raise by one of the players lets say the initial aggressor(i think check the remaining stacks to see if AI is likely by player/players behind...if yes then call...if no rer/ai?) Sometimes i don't feel that i'm getting enough value on hands as i make having the nuts (at that stage) obvious. I'd like to be a little less 'Bull in a China Shop' and a bit more subtle so i can get greater value than i feel i do.
What should i be considering in these positions?

PS it was rather funny to see the look on Tkay's face. "WHAT? Are you asking if you should call AI with trip 6's?" Though admittedly i was just think "Steve , you look a right plonker now"
I'm sorry if the pan boiled over on the show thread guys. I only wanted them to say there had been an error and would show the hand with the pertinent q's at another time. I over reacted and i apologise.
Anyway, here is the hand and i appreciate your thoughts. Any other 'scenarios? Please feel free.....
