Default 1/45 A on turn might have me behind--what to do?

Okay, when both guys call my raise and then an ace comes on the turn I'm thinking I may be in trouble. BB checks to me. What's a good way to handle this situation? Thanks.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

UTG+1 (t470)
MP1 (t1755)
MP2 (t4741)
Hero (t1990)
CO (t6335)
Button (t3765)
SB (t5662)
BB (t11750)
UTG (t3075)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero calls t200, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls t200, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t800) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t200</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t600</font>, Button calls t600, SB folds, BB calls t400.

Turn: (t2600) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero ?

I like pushing or folding pre flop. Given they way you played it, I push the flop

Preflop - Your M is 7 at the moment so I wouldnt be limping with this hand.

Flop - I would raise all in here since 600 commits to much of your stack anyway.

I'm almost never open limping here regardless of stack size. Given stack size it's definitely push or fold depending on the table.

As played pf push flop.

As played flop vomit and push turn I guess.

Yuck at open-limping this hand. Push pre-flop or raise to 600 with no intenstions to fold to a re-raise. Regardless what comes on the flop, you must push all-in. The small raise to 600 after one limper is really bad.
