How to get more profit?

I find myself being very aggressive on hands that I have made on the flop..should I back out a bit and try to squeeze more money?

this one wasn't overly aggressive..and the same style I would play even if I hadn't hit the flop. That being said..it is early in the game..icm is low..what really is most profitable?

Full Tilt Poker Game #12232463464: $20 + $2 Sit & Go (91423821), Table 1 - 15/30 - No Limit Hold'em - 10:44:27 ET - 2009/05/15

Straight draw, flush draw..and his limp-call screams set mining (not that we are concerned on the set)...do we check and hope for a bet from him on the flop? Or..just be happy with what we got this early on??

I find myself betting hard with made hands, when sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't give them a bit more room to hang themselves...

Not every hand's going to make you a tonne...

Villain likely was set mining, maybe tried getting frisky wth a hand like 67 or something - that board's got nothing for him unless he has exactly two suited cards, a weaker A, or KJ/KQ...

I think he would called 4x BB

You have to bet that board. 1/2 pot may get you a few more calls but otherwise hand is pretty standard.
