Default UB 25-50 hand vs GoG

here is a hand i played a little while ago against TheGiftOfGab. the game is 8 handed and GoG is utg+1 with 6.2k. the other opponent is in mp 2 to his left with 4.6k and is a reasonable player, a bit on the tight side if anything. i am in the BB and have them both covered.

pre-flop:
GoG open limps, mp makes it 250, folded to me and i call with 2d2h, GoG calls.

flop: [Ac 4s 2c] pot 800
i bet 600, GoG calls, mp calls.

turn: [Ac 4s 2c] [3c] pot 2600
i check, GoG bets 1800, mp folds, i call

river: [Ac 4s 2c 3c] [6s] pot 6200
i check, GoG bets 3566 allin, i fold

I think you folded a set against 2 pair. But, what do I know.

Why, if you can't put either of your opppnants on the 5 then two pair make a great semi-bluff play.

The flush is far more likely than a 5, with a 5xBB raise from a tight player.

Not sure why you called the turn if you are gonna fold the river like that.

I think you'll run into a flush or higher set way more often then two pair or a straight. I'd consider dumping this on the turn, if you give him the flush or the the straight you don't have odds to chase. If he has a higher set you're screwed.

How would everyone rank these turn options?

1) Check: fold ( assume 2/3 pot bet minimum)

2) Check: raise

3) Bet: Raise

4) Check: call

FWIW, I think 3) is attractive.

you really think GoG is limping UTG then calling raises out of position vs. tight players w/ Ace rag?
