Default Bottom 2 pair with 3-flush on flop

Haven't played a lot of hands with these guys but both have been somewhat agressive post-flop (AG factor 2+).

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, CO calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero checks.

Flop: (3.50 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ...?</font>

3-bet that flop.

If the turn card is a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or 4, you might have to fold.

Depends how crazy these guys get.

Chances are you have the best hand and both guys are chasing.
You are also drawing to a boat.
Lots of value.

How about we call two cold. Then raise the turn? These guys won't likely fold to a 3-bet (and they shouldn't). But I think that your equity increases tremendously on a turn safecard.

he is not raising to get them to fold, he is raising for value. less than 1% of the time you will flop a flush when holding 2 of the same suit. pump chips into that pot and cash in on it when they miss their flush draws.

Thanks for the input, it looks like a toss-up between raise or call.

I decided to raise and hope that they were both on draws, and because I still had the other 2 3's and 2 deuces in case someone hits their flush which would win me a bunch. CO called me, blank on the turn, I bet he calls, 4 comes on the river, I bet he raises, I make the call just to see, and he turns over A9, no [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

I would have check-called a river 4, hoping to induce a bluff. I would not bet this river unless you can fold to a raise.
