Correct way to play a big FD?
So, I'm playing 6-max 10z on PS.
I'm in the BB with Ks8s. LJ opens to 3bb, CO calls and I elect to call too.
Flop comes As9c7s
I check, LJ bets 7bb, CO calls and I 3-bet to 24bb. LJ calls and CO folds.
Turn is (As9c7s) [Kc]
At the flop I've decided I'm piling it in facing any bet on the turn and shoving most rivers regardless, too. I've turned more outs OTT, so I do decide to check it.
He effectively shoves, I call.
Did I play my hand correctly here? Should I just check/call down to get max value from the CO if I do hit my flush?
Any help is greatly appreciated :)

Hard to go wrong raising a strong draw.
I would probably just bet (shove) turn and try to make villain fold some Ax. Your second pair shouldn't have much showdown value in and off itself, but it is a nice blocker to AK.
Thank you for the reply. What if villain has, let's say, 1.5x pot behind OTT. Do I go small here or still shove for all the money? Because he had effectively 1 pot sized bet behind, so it made for an easy call imo, but maybe if we're deeper I should find a fold?
I dont mind check/raise in HU, but in multiway cbet is significantly stronger, on top of that you can have nut fd, but your hand is still too weak to consider calling when he shoves over your check/raise. SO I would prefer mostly passive line and check/raise combodraws(fd+sd) and straight draws with backdoor fd
I would treat this as a 9 out (albeit, nutted FD) draw and x/call flop. Don't want to chase away something like T9ss,QJss etc. Your pair outs are likely no good vs 2 opponents. I like your play better if you have some combo draw that gives you 12+ solid outs.
