Default A2o in BB early on

Party $200+15. Wild table, four knockouts in the first 15 hands. The only action I've seen from SB is a preflop reraise all-in with AKo.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (6 handed) converter

<font color="#C00000">SB (t1855)</font>
<font color="#C00000">Hero (t825)</font>
UTG (t1280)
MP (t3035)
CO (t2070)
Button (t935)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t60) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks.

Turn: (t60) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets t50</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t100</font>, SB calls t50.

River: (t260) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t75</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t275</font>, Hero calls t200.

Final Pot: t810

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
SB has 5d Kd (a pair of kings).
Hero has 2s Ad (two pair, aces and twos).
Hero wins t810. </font>


I expect betting the flop is the standard line, but I chose to risk a bum turn and wait for the raise opportunity. How's the river value bet on the flush board? Anyone fold to that check-raise?

I generally bet flop here. Too many annoying cards can come off for me to use this hand as a bluff catcher.
Folding the river is reasonable too. Unless they are insane or a genius, you are dead.
