Default Re: Flopped a set, but staight and flush draws come on turn/river

When the made str8 flops and I catch middle set in EP with 4 players trying to catch something I know somebody has at least a str8 draw. I'm going to either c/c this down and fold when the another str8 card hits, or the back door flush, or I'm fighting for this pot.

Personally I'm naturally agro. I fire an overbet of $7-8 at the flop. If BB calls and checks it to me on the turn I'm firing my second barrel. With a pot size of ~$20 I'll look at my stack of ~$40 and realize that a pot sized bet commits me, so I'll push. This eliminates implied odds for a draw. If I'm betting into a made str8 then its the same as betting into a higher set. I just can't get away from this hand when it's checked to me on the flop.
