Default Set of Jacks against open ended straight draw

Button will play any connecting cards, suited or not every time regardless of the action. From his flop call, I assumed he had flopped an open-ended straight draw. When the safe turn card came I decided to make a big bet, figuring that if he called it was for value and if he didn't I still take down a nice pot. I actually meant to push here but read the screen wrong - although from what I've seen of this player the extra $200 wouldn't have made a difference in his decision. What would be a better strategy against this type of player? Should I have pushed on the flop? When he bet on the river, should I have folded? Any advice on how I could have played this better would be greatly appreciated.
