I thought about isolating here, but in retrospect that does not seem like a very good reason to raise if we have to play OOP postflop.
On the other hand, limping from CO shows weakness and there is more to this hand than just playing it for set value.
When Villain limp/calls he will usually have PP or SC. On a rainbow flop like this it's an easy c-bet. If villain raises, he probably has hit his set. If he decides to flatcall, he might be chasing a draw, though I can't really see a hand with which that would make sense here. However, there's so many cards that I do not want to see on the turn and river, so I will probably start check/folding if Villain calls on the flop.
