Bet the flop for value (not for protection, which is impossible here) and go from there. If raised by the preflop aggressor, I would probably call down as long as no more hearts appear. (The preflop aggressor could easily be holding a big [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]).

Basically, you're thinking on this hand is completely wrong. There is no possible way to protect your hand against flush and straight draws. Rather, you should be betting for value while you are (hopefully) ahead.

On a side note, I would PFR with this.
