Default Another big pair out of position short handed

I think big pairs out of position (in the blinds) are a problem for me. My results lately with QQ and KK out of the blinds have been abysmal. My results lately have still been very good, as I'm not losing huge pots, but I feel like I'm getting pushed off them too easily and missing out on some edge. How do you play this situation.

4-handed 5-10 game. UTG has been playing tight and not raising too often. He raises the pot this hand w/ 150 BB and I have about the same. Folded to me in BB w/ QQ. I call.

One thing I've noticed about UTG is that he'll bet the pot no matter what after a raise if he's checked to on the flop and turn.

Flop comes like 9 high, I check, he bets pot, I call. I don't know about this line. I was planning on doing a stop and go on the turn but think I should have just check-raised to not let him draw to overs if that's what he had. Anyway, the turn is a K, I check, he bets pot again, I fold...

Help appreciated...
