Default $2 NL - Bottom 2 pair, commit here?

Hi, this was my fifth hand after sitting down, so no real reads.

I flopped bottom 2 pair out of the big blind and encountered resistance. I figured this was a strong enough holding to commit against an unknown.

How's my line? Once the pot got bigger than the villain's remaining stack, I figured all-in on the turn was the only good option left.

Default Re: $2 NL - Bottom 2 pair, commit here?

This looks fine IMO.

The only thing I might do a little different is 3bet slightly more on the flop, say to around .75. I do this in case he just calls - your turn bet won't be as large of an overbet (it would be close to pot-sized) and has a better chance of getting called by a weak King or a flush/straight draw.
