Default TPTK makes me nervous 100NL

BB is TAG (23/14/3.7).

I typically just lead the flop, but I thought this might be a good spot to mix it up.

Thoughts would be appreciated on the line in general, bet sizing, and my opponents likely range...

i was thinking QJ made a pair on turn or maybe KQ...if he had 2 pair, i would have figured him for a raise on turn to kick u off draw...no flush draw...

if we're not leading this flop, i think i might c/r this flop, i think ur asking for trouble otherwise...the only thing we beat is KQ??

EDIT: QJ/Q10 too??

I didn't c/r the flop, because I can't see him calling with many worse hands (maybe QJ?). Even if he has QJ and calls, I'd be playing a big pot OOP v. aggressive opp w/ a good, but not great (or, does my hand qualify for 'great' on this flop?), hand.

I sized the turn and river bets for value/blocking. That is, they're meant to be small enough that worse hands might call but big enough that 2 pair would be reluctant to raise.

I guess my questions are:

1. was this line weak?

2. do the bet sizes make sense?

On the flop I consider your hand 'great' but scared - unless he calls your raise with KTo, the only thing you are behind is a set, and TT probably reraises preflop. The problem is if any broadway hit that isn't a K, it probably makes him 2 pair or a straight. I would c/r the flop, bet/fold that turn.
