Default $20 - Top 2 pair getting min-raised on turn

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG+1 (t2928)
Hero (t2213)
MP2 (t2010)
MP3 (t8697)
CO (t3624)
Button (t3033)
SB (t5575)
BB (t6625)
UTG (t2255)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls t50, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, CO calls t50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t200) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t150</font>, CO calls t150, SB folds, BB folds.

Turn: (t500) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t300</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t600</font>, Hero ??

How is my line so far? I limped because CO minraised weak a lot PF and I wanted him to build a pot or get HU with him. Should I check-raise the turn? After the min-raise, is there any value in a shove? Other than a set, straight or a flush I'm not getting called by anything. Or should I just call and c/c any non club river?

Ugh... I'm in the call the turn, ch/call blank river camp. Not much you're beating here but a poorly played AK, with a slight chance of a lesser two pair.

FWIW, I raise or fold pf.

I usually raise that up MP pre-flop though. You'll get out alot of tratsh liek this guy is holding.

I"m probably taking this to the bank and shoving. He prob has a worse 2 pair of bluffing since your holding the ace of clubs...but he did jsut limp so who knows if he caught a set or soem dirty flush. You've already invested 1/4 of you stack and the extra 300 will drop you to 1500 chips. I can't really see how you're very behind here.
