Default 2NL - Top two pair, stack off?

Villain was 50/15/2 after 26 hands. I hadn't noticed him do anything remarkable in the time I was there.

Button ($.44)
Hero ($2.06)
BB ($1.70)
UTG ($3.21)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls $0.02, Button calls $0.02, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: ($0.08) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $0.08</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $0.16</font>, UTG folds, Button folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2.04 (All-In)</font>, BB calls $1.52 (All-In).

I've just switched from limit, so my concepts of nl are probably skewed, but here is my reasoning for doing this.

I lead out because obviously my two pair is too weak to slowplay or go for a check raise. After his min-raise I put him on the straight draw.

Now, if he does in fact have the straight draw, he will probably call an all-in incorrectly like most players would at this level with oesd and four-flushes.

Additionally, my two pair is with two low cards so I would like to protect them as much as possible.
