Default [NL50 SH] Top 2 Pair aginst Draw and Top Pair

Hello,

Villains are "average" players. Stats don't matter really because my question is how to play this hand if we suspect one of the villains having an Ace, and the other a draw (flush or straight or both).

While reviewing my session I noticed that if I bet the pot on the flop and the first villain calls, UTG has the correct odds to draw. So is it correct overbet here? How to play this correctly?

Thank you!

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
6 players

Stack sizes:
UTG: $116.30
UTG+1: $56.25

Hero: $49
SB: $54.15
BB: $92

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG calls, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $2.25</font>, SB calls, BB folds, UTG calls.

Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($7.25, 3 players)
SB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero ?? </font>

i'd bet lik $6. its not like its a disaster or something if utg gets priced in to call. you're still going to get more than your fair share of that extra money, too.

personally, i won't raise Arag over a utg limper from the button unless they have high vp/high fcb both, although i will open with it.

preflop is fine imo, i love to punish limpers

i'd pot it right here, imo.
If UTG calls with a draw, he's making a mistake. He's getting 3:1 on a 4:1 draw.

Limp UTG is more often weak than not I think, so I like raising here preflop.

On the hand I have bet 7$ and both call. The Turn is the 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] . I'm done with the hand, right!? Should I check/fold on every [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on the turn with 2 villains?
