Default Calling with middle pair

This obviously worked out for me, but I couldn't tell if calling on the flop was stupid. I find myself calling with middle pair on the flop a lot when it's cheap, then folding when the turn doesn't improve my hand. Not sure how to determine when I am just throwing my money away.

MP3 (t3185)
CO (t2465)
Button (t1080)
SB (t1260)
BB (t4410)
UTG (t1635)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
