I'm inclined to raise this flop. The pot is relatively large and you have position. You also have a combination of a 3 relativly weak draws worth about 7 outs. The pot is obviously big enough to call but I think a raise is the best play here. You may be able to eliminate a pp higher than your 4s, you may be able to buy a free card, and you will probobly eliminate some overcards that might have been able to draw out on you.

Not a great limp preflop. I would assume you need to improve to win on that board, and if you improve you will win. Therefore, there is no need to raise.

I probably would've played it like you did, but I like me454555's suggestion about raising the flop.
