				 15-out draw vs. overpair
				
					
						So the situation comes up often enough.  You hit a 15-out draw on the flop and you put your opponent on an overpair.  What's the best way to handle this?  
 You're a 52% favourite (54% if your opponent doesn't hold a card of the suit, 50% if he does).
 
 The problem I have with pushing, however, is that I don't push my made hands (sets or 2pair), so doesn't a push completely give away the fact that i'm on a draw?
 
 Anyways, as I said, i'm unsure of how to play these hands, so any suggestions are encouraged.  Below is an example of how I recently played one:
 
 ----------------------------
 Hero: [8d 9d], Small Blind
 Villian: Mid Position
 Other Guy: Late Position
 
 PREFLOP
 Villian raises 4x
 Other Guy calls
 Hero calls
 
 FLOP [Jc Td 5d] - Pot $12
 ----------------------------
 Hero bets $6
 Villain raises to $15
 Other guy folds
 Hero raises to $45
 Villian raises another $21 (all-in)
 Hero calls
 ----------------------------
 
 
 
 
 PS - yes, I realize that it's preferable to play such hands in position.  Please spare me the standard (and annoying) "fold preflop" replies.  Focus on the postflop action please.
