Default Playing when a flush comes on the turn

This post is in response to the last post, asking how youd deal with drawing hands.

It seemed alot of people considered flush draws to not be very profitable, since the flush possibility is so obviously seen. I tend to lean the other direction however and have a few scenarios in which I would like input on

two limpers, you call from the SB with Ks Jc ,the BB checks. (we'll put blinds at 1 2 just for easy math)

The flop comes 2h 3h Jd. You fire a bet of 5 dollars into this pot, the BB and first limper fold. The second limper calls.

The turn comes 8h. Do you check here? if so do you call a medium size bet (say 9 dollars). If not how much do you bet out?

If you check and he checks back, and the river brings a blank, would you either lead out or check/call a medium bet?

Personally, I dont think I would check the turn, because I dont wanna risk giving a free 4th heart to hit the board. If I am raised, I will reevaluate and then come to a decision.

If I did check the turn, and he bet, I'd probably either check raise (representing the flush) or call if the bet was smallish

If he checks back on the turn, If I dont lead out on the river, I will at least be in check/call mode if a blank hits (to a reasonable bet)

Theres my thinking ---- and the reason that I believe flush draws to still be profitable, just not being able to drag in MONSTER pots.

Would you guys play these situations different? Lets hear it....
