Default Picking off continuation bets

Fairly common situation...not sure if I am playing it smart.

200 NL 6 max.

I'm in the BB with QQ. Folded to fairly TAG, decent but not scary player on the button, who makes it 8 to go, SB folds, heads up.

With QQ/JJ or AK against an average player here I will usually(75%) just call here, hoping to pick up his continuation bet on the flop, and figuring he's not calling a reraise with anything I want him to have.

Flop ($~18) is J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], I'm fairly sure I'm ahead, I check and call the CB of $15.

Turn (~$48) 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
I bet $30...

Ridiculously standard? Anyone raise the flop here? Anyone check the turn and hope for another bet?

What's the plan if the turn is A or K?
