Flop top pair (Q Kick) and Q high Flush draw - what's gameplan?

[GaF]

Quite a nice flop for me - top pair with Queen kicker and a Queen high flush draw. I like these hands because you can bet them aggressively - your opponent may be on a draw or some other weak holding - I can bet it aggressively knowing that I can win the hand multiple ways (May already be ahead, may win if I hit my draw, may force my opponent to fold a better hand as I can be aggressive.... What should my "gameplan" be throughout the hand from here? ***** Hand 1092896962 ***** 10.00/20.00 Texas Hold'em (No Limit ) - 23 May 2008 21:02:38 Poker League (Real /Tournament ) Seat 1: cossac (1500.00) Seat 2: ncardeira+ (1490.00) Seat 3: PLwarbirds (1460.00) Seat 4: saja777 (1570.00) Seat 5: BosanacBiH (1500.00) Seat 6: Dedo68 (1500.00) Seat 7: JMourinho1 (1500.00) Seat 8: PLTelepee (1480.00) Seat 9: PLdobbin (1500.00) PLwarbirds post SB 10.00 saja777 post BB 20.00 ** Deal ** cossac [N/A, N/A] ncardeira+ [N/A, N/A] PLwarbirds [N/A, N/A] saja777 [N/A, N/A] BosanacBiH [N/A, N/A] Dedo68 [N/A, N/A] JMourinho1 [N/A, N/A] PLTelepee [Jd, Qs] PLdobbin [N/A, N/A] *** Bet Round 1 *** BosanacBiH Call 20.00 Dedo68 Fold JMourinho1 Fold PLTelepee Call 20.00 PLdobbin Fold cossac Call 20.00 ncardeira+ Fold PLwarbirds Call 20.00 saja777 Check *** Flop(Board): *** : [3s, 8s, Js] *** Bet Round 2 *** PLwarbirds Check saja777 Bet 100.00 BosanacBiH Fold

Re: Flop top pair (Q Kick) and Q high Flush draw - what's gameplan? You have to be very cautious in this hand as your flush could be drawing dead as it's likely that someone else has a Ks or As. You know how bad players are in this league so if you raise to define your hand you know someone could well call your bet with a lower flush draw or absoulute crap so I'd play it passively and just call and see how he acts on the turn. You also have 2 players left to act behind so I'd definitely just flat call.
