I probably check/call there instead of betting. You fold out all the hands that you beat and get raised by anything that you're behind. Not much value in that bet.

Unless the villain is a call station (ie, thinks his 2 pair is good on that board when you bet into him), just check-call to pick off bluffs from a busted flush draw.
