Based on what kind of range do you think you have 43,9% equity against him?
I would most likely fold against a unknown with a decent chip lead I have now.
No need to take a variance spot like this.

I would check behind with such a nut draw when you have implied odds. I he didn't the board he will fold on later streets so you don't need to pull this semi-bluff where you have to fold to a shove.

But if you're not cbetting a nut FD & 1 overcard, what boards are you cbetting?

Guess it depends on the villian, but without reads I think you should always cbet here

It is more about how the board connects to the villains range and about how he perceives it connects to mine but not just about how much equity we have OTF.
I think your flush will rarely get paid on further streets from the hands that somehow hit that board but stand unimproved and there are certainly more bad cards for the opps range than yours which discount their outs and force them play c/r more often at such spots.
I don't say that you NEVER cbet here coz you get pretty unbalanced, however, I think you should more often take up an opportunity to see a free card against a most likely very unbalanced fish player and get value from him when you improve. He may also try to bluff you when 3rd club comes whereas he most likely never do this in an inflated cbet/call pot.
