Unarmed

I put Villain on a low PP, K10 up, or any ace after the PF call, hence the flop raise. I was ready to drop the hand until he checked the turn, which makes me think he has Ax and no pair, or a scared AQ. What's the best play in this scenario? Assume typical $5 buy-in calibre. (the type that would lay down a Q if he thought I had the K, even to a 1/3 pot all-in)
Also, I think that's officially the last time I raise JJ whenever I have a decent enough stack to play it for set value. Raising it PF just introduces too many tricky situations post flop.
