Default Baluga\'d vs likely 2p2 and I hate my hand

Villain is 24/18/4.0, no specific history. My image is nothing remarkable, running at about 20/17/3 and not involved at all with villain so far

Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 4 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

Hero (SB): $106.40
BB: $149.96
UTG: $257.98
BTN: $103.30

Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (4 Players)
2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $4.00</font>, BB calls $3.00

Flop: ($8) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $6.00</font>, BB calls $6.00

Turn: ($20) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $12.00</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to $30.00</font>

all comments appreciated, i think my turn bet is too small [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

standard fold. Everything you beat is a bluff.

i fail to see the problem with the turn bet; hitting their odds nicely, and making it not too expensive to fold without looking too weak and so letting them make you.

To add:

Checking the turn is incredibly results oriented. We obviously check the turn for the obvious reasons (to charge draws, get money from weaker aces,etc.)

The turn bet is a tad too small though and many villains will recognize it as potential a draw of our own or a weak ten (K10,Q10,KQ,KJ) more so than the hand we have.

In a way our hand is under-repped due to the basically half pot sized bet.

Therefore given that I think we are obligated to call here.

We lose to 3 obvious hands and probably only two (A10,AQ) (quads 3s).

I can't immediately hop on the 24/18 having a 3 bandwagon.

Everything we beat is a bluff, but doesn't bluffs/weaker aces hoping for a split make up a large part of his range?
