Default Go for the bonus?

Playing 1/2 on Crypto. 7 players. Fairly tight table.

CO is poster and new to table.
Button is 45/21
SB is 16/2
BB is 7/0
all over about 25 hands

Hero UTG K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Preflop: Hero Calls, 2 folds, CO checks, Button Calls, SB completes, BB checks

Flop (5 SB) : J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Hero Bets, all fold.

Clearly I've got the cards to make a bet here, and from what I know about the table all folding is not a huge surprise.

The question is that at this limit there is a $125 Royal Flush bonus, and I have a 1 out draw twice to hit it (4.17%). If I just check through the river and no one else bets, I'm due to make ~5.20 from the bonus. And if anyone else bets, I don't care, my 15+ outs leave me very comfortable.

Anyway, I autobet so quickly on that flop that I didn't even stop to consider the bonus until everyone folded. Anyone check here to increase chances at the bonus?
