I would probably raise the flop. Only the SB is being hit for 2 cold so you will probably get everyone else to come along for the ride.

I am raising this flop as well.

You have to bet the river, too.

Hello missed river value bet and flop raise.

Re: Vulnerable two pair--how\'d I play?
 

Hard to protect your hand on the flop, so I'd just raise it for value. You need to value bet the river.

Re: Vulnerable two pair--how\'d I play?
 

Raise the flop, bet the turn (OK you did that), bet the river. Do you not like money? Do you honestly think someone has A4, A5, A6, A9 (because if you think someone has a straight or set, you are nuts). Your hand is good but extremely vurnelable; shove money in the pot while you are still good!
