It depends.
If I know villian and assume he plays reasonable, I can fold to a turn check/raise because this almost never will be just a single pair of Jacks.
Good players will most likely play top pair for potcontrol in that situation early in a DoN.
Against donkeys, who go broke here with top pair any kicker or any kind of draw, I always stack off here of course.

Yes, it's definitely worth in my opinion.
The flushdraw only arrives in about 1/5 times - That means 4 out of 5 times we extracted maximum value and can even catch river bluff bets with the busted flushdraw for more value.
And if the flush hits on the river and we get pushed it's an easy fold where we still save some chips left and just got sucked out.
