More AK shenanigans

Still trying to improve my play with AK..
UTG had not been at the table for long but seems TAgg.

Flop: ($3.95) 4, 2, 5 (3 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $2.75, Button folds, UTG calls $2.75.

UTG checks, Hero ???

What is the optimal play here? I have 2 overcards, the gutshot straight draw, and the 2nd nut flush draw. Do you fire a 2nd barrell or check and see the river for free?

Really depends on reads. Without a good read, I lean towards checking.

check

I check that every time. You probably have a lot of outs and you are probably behind - why bet in that situation when he's letting you see a free card?

Take the free card.

yep, in retrospect a check here is so blatantly obvious this shoulda been posted in the beginners circle
