Default Smart or suicidal?

I have no idea whether this was goot play or lagginess gone amok.

Cryptologic 1.00/2.00 Hold'em <font color="#0000FF">(10 handed)</font> link

reads: UTG is spewing chips. Something like 69/10 - but has raised last 4 straight while complaining about his bad luck at roulette. MP2 is lag-gy with a 30 vpip but only 60 hands in. BB is a mouse.

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, BB calls.


Thoughts: I'm cold calling the raise because he's been spewing and I don't think he has to have a good hand to raise here. Perhaps I should be raising to isolate, but with 22 and lots to act behind me i'm chicken.

Flop: (8.50 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, MP2 checks.

Thoughts: I'm folding to any bet here. ultra-co-ordinated boards. Surely PFr or Lag will take a shot? No? hmm...

Turn: (4.25 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP2 folds, BB calls, UTG calls.

Thoughts: Co-rdinated board and no-one takes a shot? 2 checks to me with a scary board.. Surely i need to bet/fold here? OK, 2 calls... hmmm- prabably low pairs or draws?

River: (7.25 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>.....

I've represented the K, so now i've got to stand by it. *gulp*

Final Pot: 8.25 BB.
