Default do I checkraise this paired deuce?

I'm at a crazy loose table with lost of loose/weak players.

after three limpers I call with A2s in the sb.

the flop comes twotoned with a deuce on it.

checked around.

turn does not complete the flush.

assume the following:
villains will fold without a pair or draw almost every time.
villains will call with a pair or draw almost every time.
someone will probably bet with air if it checks to him.

bet out? (and probably pick the pot up now)
checkraise? (and trap whomever for two on the turn)
check/fold?

What are the other cards? They are important.

These players are passive, so it is unlikely they will bet the turn with air. The turn card was good for us because it didn't help anyone who was behind us on the flop. I bet/fold the turn, and reevaluate on the river. If you decide to check the turn, you need to fold to a bet.

well not if we're assuming they'll sometimes bet the turn with air... but yeah i agree that we should just be leading here. we have the best hand most of the time and we don't want to give free cards.
