Default Pl50 flush draw

I don't play much pot limit but I am trying to play more
Villain was very loose but not particularly aggressive, I think around 2

Poker Stars, $0.25/$0.50 PL Hold'em Cash Game, 8 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

UTG+1: $44.90
MP1: $48.50
Hero (MP2): $51.10
CO: $14.35
BTN: $59.20
SB: $24
BB: $29.50
UTG: $83.55

Pre-Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (MP2)
3 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.50</font>, CO folds, BTN calls $1.50, 2 folds

Flop: ($3.75) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $3</font>, BTN calls $3

Turn: ($9.75) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)

My default would be to fire a strong bet again here, but people don't seem to respect strength as much in PL.
Are c/r or c/c viable options here?
If he raises my bet of ~8 should I just go over the top and commit?
Would a small bet of around 5 be good here to control pot??

[/ QUOTE ]Why would you c/r here if people don't respect strength? I think c/c and bet are both good options here.

[/ QUOTE ] If you bet $8 and he raises to $24 why would you push with no hand and no fold equity? Just call it and hit your draw or pair. If you do get raised on the turn though there is a good chance your pairs may not be good therefore you should fold the turn as you not be getting enough pot odds + implied odds.

[/ QUOTE ] Here you're not controlling the pot, you're blocking to get a cheap draw but it's a good idea.
