Default How do you play monster draws early in tournaments?

I have been losing a lot of chips with monster draws in 27 man SNGs lately. What's the best way to play ? Aggressively? Passively? I'm talking about draws like flush draw with straight draw, flush draw with overcards, flush draw w/ top pair or any combo of the above. Seems like no one will get pushed off on the flop and on the turn the draw loses a lot of value.

Table '60746411 2' 9-max Seat #2 is the button
Seat 1: GoddessIndie (1500 in chips)
Seat 2: Fermion5 (1490 in chips)
Seat 3: Vladamir69 (1480 in chips)
Seat 4: Indy25 (1500 in chips)
Seat 5: piffel (1530 in chips)
Seat 6: grannie55 (1500 in chips)
Seat 7: MarbleRem's (1500 in chips)
Seat 8: deadlunetik (1500 in chips)
Seat 9: DeadEye007 (1500 in chips)
Vladamir69: posts small blind 10
Indy25: posts big blind 20
