Default The right fold, or too hasty?

Hey guys,

I recently joined a game on Pokerstars and was wondering if I made the correct lay down or not. I am very new to the table, so I have little information on the other players tendencies. Anyway, here is the history:

Poker Stars, $0.10/$0.25 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 9 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

BTN: $29.65
SB: $17.55
BB: $4.75
UTG: $21.70
UTG+1: $26.90
UTG+2: $35.35
MP1: $5.45
Hero (MP2): $24.75
CO: $13.50

Pre-Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (MP2)
2 folds, UTG+2 calls $0.25, MP1 folds, Hero raises to $1, 3 folds, BB calls $0.75, UTG+2 calls $0.75

Flop: ($3.10) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 Players)
BB checks, UTG+2 checks, Hero bets $2.50, BB folds, UTG+2 calls $2.50

Turn: ($8.10) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG+2 bets $4.75, Hero folds

Results: $8.10 Pot ($0.35 Rake)
UTG+2 mucked and WON $7.75 (+$4.25 NET)


Since I raised 4xBB on pre-flop, I put UTG+2 on an upper range of hands or pockets. On the post-flop, due to my pot-size bet and his flat call I assumed he had something decent. However, because of him leading out on the turn I was thinking that he could be on a steal, that he wanted to protect trips due to the flush board, or he did in fact hit the flush. Hence, I am not sure if I made the right fold here, and unfortunately I do not know UTG+2's hole cards.

Regards,

Brett
