Default checking behind or betting mediocre draws in rred pots

villain is lag/tag decent
assume not much history

not considering what cards i hold, this seems like a pretty good board to cbet in a raised pot

is it better to check this draw behind - and then i can basically only win if i hit?

or is it better to cbet and risk getting check raised - which villain is doing relatively often imo, since he's decent?

it seems like the stronger your draw the more likely you should be to check behind, up to the point where your draw becomes strong enough that you're willing to get it all in, at which point i could see going either way

in rred pots, you usually discount flush draws to a degree, so does that make my flush draw stronger than the same flush draw in an unraised pot, and therefore i should be more likely to check behind?
