No read on SB.

I don't know how MP2 got his stack as it was about the same size when I arrived 60 hands ago (exception: did lose about $40 when he rivered the nutflush w. a card that paired the board). Opp seems tight preflop and was disciplined enough to c/c that paired rivered nutflush instead of leading or c/ring.

Thoughts on my play. Is my raise against the flop donk OK?

Do I need to bet that turn? Is it a c/f rather than the c/c I did here?
I checked it b/c:
a) it was not the best card
b) MP2 coldcalled my flop raise.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (7 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

MP2 ($243.20)
CO ($148.55)
Button ($101.75)
SB ($65.95)
BB ($119.95)
Hero ($240)
MP1 ($125.75)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with , .
Hero raises to $4, 1 fold, MP2 calls $4, 2 folds, SB calls $3.50, 1 fold.

Flop: ($13) , , (3 players)
SB bets $2, Hero raises to $10, MP2 calls $10, SB folds.

Turn: ($35) (2 players)
Hero checks, MP2 bets $10, Hero calls $10.

River: ($55) (2 players)
Hero checks, MP2 bets $26, Hero....?

Couple Things:

1. Flop raise is good but MP2's overcall scares me. A lot.
2. The turn is like a card from hell. I like the check, his bet looks like he's trying to price you in. I really doubt he expects you to fold to this bet. Against a good player, you're never good here. If I had a read that he was bad, I would call and c/c a safe river.
3. You just can't do anything except check/fold the river.

Raising a little bigger on the flop might help.

I might just check/fold the turn. I think you're drawing dead here a lot.
