Default Creating the illusion of a deuce?

This is a live tourney with $220 buy-in. Starting chips 5000, 40 min limits. Blinds are 100/200/25 - 9 handed

Stacks are Hero- 8500
UTG- 9000
CO- 6000

Reads- UTG has been limping alot and seems to just play his cards against the board. He has shown both good and bad cards out of position.
CO is new to the table but I remember playing with him a ways back and him not being that much of a thinker. Everyway you slice it I wasn't up against anyone scary.

My image has me on a being a bit aggressive but quiet for a few orbits now. I've only had to show a set, and AA (which lost [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]).

Hero is in BB with 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG+1 calls, CO calls, SB completes. Hero checks.

Flop(1025): 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
Checks around

Turn(1025) J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG bets 400, CO calls, SB folds
Hero raises to 2000.

Any thoughts here? Bigger raise, maybe just call? I realize I'm getting great odds to draw to a flush but I was worried CO might have a better one and thought I could win this right here.

I prefer to do this move against thinking players.

You would be surprised how many players would forget the fact that you are in the BB and not give you credit for a 2.
