Default JJ OTB vs PFR from UTG 15+1 Turbo 2nd level

No real reads, he's pretty tight from the few hands we've had. This is the first hand he's raised. I think I should've raised his weak turn bet to see where I was at, or bet the flop. This passive line can't be correct, can it? I wanted to see a cheap show down after the weak bet on the turn.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) CP hand converter

Hero (t1770)
SB (t1340)
BB (t1420)
UTG (t1620)
UTG+1 (t1370)
MP1 (t1690)
MP2 (t1470)
MP3 (t1145)
CO (t1675)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t120</font>, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, Hero calls t120, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: (t285) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
UTG checks, Hero checks.

Turn: (t285) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t90</font>, Hero calls t90.

River: (t465) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t120</font>, Hero calls t120.

Final Pot: t705

Definitely bet the flop. You've got position - use it.

I'm okay with this line too. The only thing I don't like is that you probably could have gotten QQ to fold. But there are plenty more hands that might play it this way (TT/99/AQ/AJ/AT), and they'd probably fold to a raise. Or he could have a monster (AA/KK/88), and then you'd have to fold to his three-bet on the turn. This looks fine to me.
