Default early tourney question

This is just a basic situation that I run into a lot and I have no idea if I am playing this too tight. Situation:

PokerStars $10 table (starting chips 1500).

First round of blinds BB(20), Hero dealt

in late position

Flop is

First player to act bets 40, table folds around to Hero with one player behind me. I usually fold in this situation. But I wonder if it is worth the 40 to try to get a big hand (two pair, trips) relatively cheaply.
