Default Waiting for a safe turn card

I hate the way I played this hand. Leading the flop seemed donkish so my plan at the time was to checkraise a safe card on the turn. I suspect a much better line would have been to lead the flop and turn and fold to a turn/river raise.

Villain seemed TAGgy, but I only had 23 hands on him.

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (5.50 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (3.75 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero calls.

Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 7.75 BB

Fold KJo in early position. Raise the turn and fold if 3bet.

Forgot to mention that the table was pretty passive preflop, so I thought I could get away with limping w/ KJo - not that folding wouldn't be a good idea.
