Default Better line for big draw?

This hand came up tonight, and it bugs me. I was multi-tabling and simply clicked 'bet pot' without pausing to think.

I want some opinions as to the most profitable way to play this hand OOP - if I was in position I'd be fine, but I feel awkward with it in the blinds.

Again, I can't find a converter that converts UB hh's (suggestions??)

Hand #37040933-132182 at Clarksville (No Limit Hold'em)
Started at 09/Feb/07 12:26:08

map123 is at seat 0 with $43.20.
hero is at seat 1 with $43.95.
suckkin out2 is at seat 2 with $34.35.
moneylibero is at seat 3 with $53.15.
lackofcolor_ is at seat 4 with $50.
GoldRaker is at seat 5 with $17.45.
The button is at seat 5.

map123 posts the small blind of $.25.
hero posts the big blind of $.50.

map123: -- --
hero: 2h Kh
suckkin out2: -- --
moneylibero: -- --
lackofcolor_: -- --
GoldRaker: -- --

Pre-flop:

suckkin out2 calls. moneylibero folds. lackofcolor_
folds. GoldRaker folds. map123 calls. hero
checks.

Flop (board: Qh 2d 6h):

map123 checks. hero bets $1.50. suckkin out2
folds. map123 folds. hero is returned $1.50
(uncalled).

hero opts to show 2h Kh.
hero has 2h Kh Qh 2d 6h: a pair of deuces.


Hand #37040933-132182 Summary:

$.05 is raked from a pot of $1.50.
hero wins $1.45.


Would check/calling be a better line, with a check/raise later if I improve? Or is it a safer play to lead out like I did, given I don't have much of a hand at this point?

If check/calling flop is preferable, how would later streets be played to maximise ev?

id play it the same, your hand is not that good, top pair with a flush draw you MAY be able to slowplay some but you need to be betting here

Looks fine...you want a fold here since you don't have much of a hand (yet).
