I think your big bet on the flop sets up a good double barrel because utg riase + 75% pot bet on flop looks alot like AK. I would only bet a little over half pot on the turn though.

I actually bet 64% of pot on the flop. I was trying to represent AK (or AA). I figure my relatively large cbet could also be a complete bluff, which it was, in which case, the turn bet also represents that I just hit my ace.

I agree with LFT that the bet sizing should be smaller. It's a dry board, so a bet of 50% of pot on the flop is just fine to rep what we need to rep, and another 50/60% bet on the turn is plenty if we decide to double barrel because villain will have to call that knowing a big bet on the river is probably coming. So smaller bets are accomplishing everything the bigger bets accomplish but allow you to get away cheaper if you have to bail out.
