Default Semi-bluff gone wrong

.25/.50 NL Home game. Hero and villian's stacks are ~$50

Hero is in BB with J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

1 limper to villain in CO who raises to $1.75. The CO is an active player who raises a lot and is good postflop. The raise could be any PP, suited connector, Ax, or some Broadway.

Folded to Hero who calls. The limper folds, it's HU.

Flop is 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Hero checks, Villain bets $2. Hero raises to $6.
Comments here? This flop could have easily missed him, and this is something I would do with AT. Maybe I can pick up the pot here with a reraise.

Villain reraises to $14. Oops.

Hero folds.

Push here with a smaller stack? Call with a deeper stack?

If I push, I feel I have no folding equity and if he calls I am not getting 2:1 to make this a decent play.

If I call, if the turn is a blank, I am in trouble and may have to fold there.

When I get a flush draw OOP, should I just be trying to make my flush as cheaply as possible, or is this an ok play?

Thanks
J

if you feel you have no folding equity against overpair, then I would fold.
