Default PStars 4/180, flopped the second nuts

Still early in the tournament, no reads on villain. A couple of questions: 1) Should I have reraised villain, and 2) Given how this hand played out, should I call his 4-bet?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

CO (t1395)
Button (t6040)
SB (t1350)
Hero (t3090)
UTG (t2720)
UTG+1 (t2160)
MP1 (t2730)
MP2 (t2055)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls t30, UTG+1 calls t30, MP1 calls t30, MP2 calls t30, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t180) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t150</font>, UTG calls t150, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t300</font>, SB folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1000</font>, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t2025</font>, Hero ???

third nuts actually

62 and 67 beat you currently

anyway, at the 4/180s this is a slowplayed overpair pretty often, or a pair that hit a set

1) Yes.
2) Yes.

People play crazy early on in these 4.4/180's. It's possible he could have a better straight, but villain most likely has 2 pair, set, straight draw w/ pair, overpair, or flush draw. No way you can fold this hand, IMO.

You should play this like it is the nuts cause the only had i'm really worried about is the flush draw, if someone got lucky with 62 or 67 we won't know about it till the cards are flipped as people would play any over pair this way.
