Default AQs in big pot

Hey everyone,

I was playing $.50/$1 NL on Pokerroom tonight, and while I did very well, I wondered if I played a hand where I lost big correctly.

Seat 1: UTG ($42.70 in chips)
Seat 2: UTG+1 ($45 in chips)
Seat 3: ChipsAhoya [AC,QC] ($219.55 in chips)
Seat 4: MP1 ($33.45 in chips)
Seat 5: MP2 ($76.80 in chips)
Seat 6: MP3 ($55.05 in chips)
Seat 7: CO ($11.50 in chips)
Seat 8: Button ($43.90 in chips)
Seat 9: SB ($29 in chips)
Seat 10: BB ($49.50 in chips)

PRE-FLOP
UTG calls $0.50, UTG+1 calls $0.50, ChipsAhoya calls $0.50, MP1 folds, MP2 calls $0.50, MP3 folds, CO calls $0.50, Button folds, SB bets $4, BB folds, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls $3.75, ChipsAhoya calls $3.75, MP2 folds, CO folds.

I had everyone covered by quite a bit thanks to a big fish who re-bought 2 times, and with everyone limping to me, I figured that I would just limp hoping to keep people in and make a play for someone's stack depending on the flop. The SB raise to $4, and I flat called after another player did.

FLOP [board cards JH,6H,QS ]
SB bets $12, UTG+1 folds, ChipsAhoya bets $25, SB calls $12.75 and is all-in.

Is TPTK good here? He bet about the size of the pot (I had no read on him), and I figured that he was just trying to pick up the pot w/ AK or a small pair. It wouldn't cost too much more (min raise) to put him all-in, so I did. Are JJ, KK, and AA too likely for me to call here?

TURN [board cards JH,6H,QS,6S ]

RIVER [board cards JH,6H,QS,6S,4D ]

SHOWDOWN in white:

SB shows [ KD,KH ]
ChipsAhoya wins $0.25, SB wins $61.25. </font>

Just wondering if I missed something somewhere, or if I made a mistake pre-flop; should I have I raised originally, or failing that, should I min raise his $4 to get him on a hand?

Thanks,
ChipsAhoya
