Not sure how I should play this and could use some feedback, let me know what you think I should have done on each round.

Why min raise out of position? Raise bigger than just 2BB, especially UTG or just limp if you don't like your position.

Otherwise it was played fine, you took a shot at representing AK but BB called anyway.

Which min raise do you mean, I didn't do any.

Also, what if the flop came like J /images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2 /images/graemlins/heart.gif, 9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif to give me a set? Should I bet out still or should I check and hope to induce a bet? The only thing I would be afraid of is giving a free card for the flush draw.

Blinds are $1/$2, yet you only bet $4 UTG+1.

With a flop like J /images/graemlins/heart.gif 2 /images/graemlins/heart.gif 9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif you want to bet out and hopefully get all in on the flop. People with flush or straight draws will call. At least a half pot to full pot bet (depending on pot size and table looseness).
