How to get paid with a Royal?

edited September 2012 in The Poker Clinic
I have been lucky enough to hit 4 Royal Flush's in 15 years, however I dont seem to be able to get paid off with the nuts... your thoughts on how I should have played my last RF which was a live game at my local casino.

8 players all with good or average stacks, 1€/50c (remember I'm in Spain), 1 other reg not in the hand and rest tourist playing loose and drinking, I'm on the button with KdTd. Under the gun raises X3, the guy before me calls whom is a bit of a station and a poor player, I call to see flop. (I did not want to 3 bet here with KT as I had been bullying the original raises and felt he was strong and may have 4 bet)

Dream flop, Ad,Jd,Qd! Both check to me and I bet 1/3 pot, both players call and turn comes down Qc again checked to me and again I bet 1/3 of the pot but both players fold.

Should I have checked the flop to appear weak or should I have bet more?

Did my flop bet mean I was never getting paid on the remaining streets, could I have played this better if so how?
