Results follow:

Hero shows two pairs, aces and twos(K:c A:h).
BU shows two pairs, fives and twos(5:d 5:s).

Hero wins with two pairs, aces and twos(K:c A:h).

I called the turn because of the odds offered.
Is it a right play?

With 6 outs you need 7:1 on the Turn
With 5 outs you need 8.5:1 on the Turn

You get 5:1 with $6.5 behind which means you can barely make this play +EV

In fact I would mostly double barrel this board to get FEQ and thin value against x hi flushdraws that you are still ahead against.
