Hey giannis,

It really depends on villain your pot equity your fold equity. Sometimes you should play a flush draw aggressively but other times you might not (perhaps you don't have enough fold equity for it to be profitable).

The same applies to your 99 on a 4c4hQh flop. Sometimes the best option might be to raise while other times it might be to flat-call or even fold. It really depends on villain's range including the range he will continue with to a raise. Theoretically you could raise 99 for value against flush-draws, but if your opponent folds all flush draws to a raise and only calls with Qx, it might be a bad idea.
