    Default Aggressively played flush.

    Third hand at a new table, only read on villain here is that he's an ego player, so I knew that being aggressive would be the way to play this hand. Do you guys ever play monsters aggressively like this?

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

    Button ($17.71)
    SB ($7.63)
    BB ($12.81)
    UTG ($11.55)
    UTG+1 ($20.90)
    Hero ($28.80)
    MP2 ($61.05)
    CO ($23.75)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q, K. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.25, Hero raises to $0.75, MP2 calls $0.75, 1 fold, Button calls $0.75, 1 fold, BB calls $0.50, UTG+1 calls $0.50.

    Flop: ($3.85) 7, 9, 5 (5 players)
    BB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $3, MP2 calls $3, Button folds, BB folds, UTG+1 folds.

    Turn: ($9.85) 8 (2 players)
    Hero bets $4.5, MP2 calls $4.50.

    River: ($18.85) A (2 players)
    Hero bets $8, MP2 raises to $16, Hero raises all-in, MP2 calls $4.55.

    Final Pot: $47.40

    Results in white below:
    Hero has Qh Kh (flush, king high).
    MP2 has Js Tc (straight, jack high).
    Outcome: Hero wins $47.40.

    This is how I almost always play monster hands.

    Judging by the size of your stacks and given opp won't be scared by your aggressiveness, I would bet more on the turn so that you have an easier time getting it all-in on the river. Though in this case it doesn't matter, but just my opinion.

    what do you normally do, check it down?
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    Standard flop play. Bet more on turn.

    I don't normally do anything. I respond to the given situation in the what I think is the appropriate way. Sometimes, in this situation, I will use the TPTK line and act afraid of the flush board, especially against a lag player whose known to bluff at pots.

    It's hard to make your opponent think u have tptk when you raised preflop and the board is a flushed 9875 and you are still betting...
