This is not a triple barreling hand on this board.

All player types, after they call the flop, are usually ahead of you on the turn:
- nits probably have TPTK/TPGK (they would raise sets)
- TAGs too, with added flush draws that just arrived; considering the board they DON'T have medium SCs worse than 8 so even if you hit river you are dead
- fish are you only hope but they LOVE Aces and also sooted cards :D

You are ahead a minority of the time and should chk/fold OOP in 2NL. You can try for a chkraise vs a TAG but frankly I wouldn't bother since even they don't fold enough in 2NL :D
