Default Too small of a turn bet?

This feels like a slow play to me. I don't have any reads on villian. Anything different I can do in this hand?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (9 handed) converter

UTG ($221)
UTG+1 ($270.6)
MP1 ($373.3)
Hero ($234.55)
MP3 ($205.62)
CO ($206.35)
Button ($191.85)
SB ($38.15)
BB ($108.05)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $4</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $15</font>, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, UTG calls $11.

Flop: ($33) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $30</font>, UTG calls $30.

Turn: ($93) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $50</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $150</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $293

i fold in this spot too. a set is very possible for villain. there's not many reasonable hands he would play this way that doesn't have you beat.

I would say too large of a turn bet, as in you should check behind. If villain raised PF, called your re-raise, and called a pot sized bet on this flop, I am checking behind this turn 100% of the time. Check the turn, and call a decent sized bet on the river UI (unimproved).

Edit: Yes, he could hold AK [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], so keep that in mind, but I still don't bet here.

Yea I was thinking that too but wasn't sure. I guess the way behind or way ahead rule is in effect here right?

Yeah, with the exception of AK [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or now TT, it seems that it is.
