Default Final two tables, weak pair against a lag, SBvBB

This is from the $163 55k Gtd. on FTP. Villain is very LAG, has already shown down complete air in a big pot (he bet another player off of a big side pot)

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t1000/t2000
(Ante: t250)
6 players

Stack sizes:
UTG: t37688
UTG+1: t68320
CO: t73209
Button: t9086
Hero: t54284
BB: t119855

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is SB with Ah 4d
4 folds, Hero calls t1000 (pot was t4500), BB checks.

Flop: Th 4s 2d (t5500, 2 players)
Hero bets t3000, BB calls t3000 (pot was t8500).

Turn: 3d (t11500, 2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets t5000, Hero?????

To him you've limped, took a stabat the pot then checked. I would definately raise if i was the villain. Because of this i think you should check-raise to about 15,000.

A check raise is terrible here. I'd bet/fold the turn. He could've called your flop bet with any T,4,or 2. As played, call the turn.
