I need help in this overall general situation - I've got a good but not great hand (TpGk) and bet the flop, get called . The turn brings in a draw (str8, flush) and now what do I do? Do I bet again or check it?

I feel like betting again can be good as you just fold to a raise from most people. But do you automatically check/fold the river too? Or do you bet the river again?

Also, when you are betting the flop with a flush draw and the turn brings in your flush, do you keep betting? Should we be considering how we play a flush when making our decision for the times we don't have one? I mean, if I had a flush I'd like to keep betting but I'd do that mostly cause I'd expect them to think that I didn't have it and it would allow me to get value.

But I don't like check/folding there - so is it a check/call and then check/fold the river? I just dunno!!!!
