Am I too weaktight here?

Reads: MP2 is the biggest calling station ever. No real read on UTG, he just arrived.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (7 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

SB ($4.40)
BB ($50.20)
UTG ($23.60)
MP1 ($14.35)
MP2 ($40.35)
Hero ($38.85)
Button ($53.35)

Preflop: Hero is CO with , .
UTG calls $0.25, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.25, Hero calls $0.25, Button calls $0.25, 1 fold, BB checks.

Flop: ($1.35) , , (5 players)
BB checks, UTG bets $1, MP2 raises to $2, Hero folds,


Reason for folding: Calling station raised. Its a family pot, and I may be drawing against a made hand already, in which case I have four outs. No real read on UTG, but limping KK is all the rage these days. KQ, AT, suits are all problematic here.
My dream... is to fly... over the rainbow... so high...

I often raise preflop but sometimes limp (90/10 I'd guess). I don't mind the fold on the flop. Even if you have the best hand somebody likely has a pair+draw/GSFD/OESFD and you easily get sucked out.

nice raise, even nicer laydown... bottom two pairs, if you aren't already dominated (and you likely are!) then you soon will be. I don't think you can 3-bet here, calling is too weak for words, your outs aren't clean, so I think you gotta fold...
