Default pair and a flush draw

I try to mix up my play and raise with suited connectors but sometimes I dont know how to play them postflop.

UTG is a good player. Button is not - he is too loose and passive. I dont like the size of my bets. How much to bet? Or perhaps checkraise somewhere?
How do I use the image this hand should give me? Do I play more loose, more tight or just normal (I normally play very tight)?

Comments on all streets appreciated.

Default Re: pair and a flush draw

on turn I'd bet the pot vs. a loose passive fish. If he's aggressive, I'd CR all-in. PF, F, and river look ok. Hell, overbetting pot on turn couldn't be too bad - you most likely have best hand, maybe best draw - build that pot.

PF: Okay.... if used in moderation. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
F: Fine
T: Bet more. I would say $130 - $160. You're still giving a flush draw decent odds to call, particularly since you're willing to stack off when the flush hits.
R: Fine
