Default 100NL 6max AK - how is this line?

I'm a newber to NL cash coming from an SNG background, so naturally I have no experience with post-flop play. Please help me. Comments on all streets appreciated.

Villain is 50/12 over 16 hands...so not much to go by way of reads.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
6 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is BB with :ac :kh
[color=#cc0000]UTG raises to $3.5</font>, 4 folds, [color=#cc0000]Hero raises to $15</font>, UTG calls.

Flop: :jc :9s :7c ($30.5, 2 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks.

Turn: :ks ($30.5, 2 players)
Hero checks, [color=#cc0000]UTG bets $20</font>, [color=#cc0000]Hero raises all-in $75.55</font>, UTG calls.

River: :qc ($181.6, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: $181.6)


Results:
Final pot: $181.6

*Edit* Apparently this hand converter doesn't work - anyone know a good FT one?

*grunch* (although maybe I'm the first)

First just a note about your lack of reads. One big difference that I've found in NL cash game play, in particular short handed (I'm new as well) is that reads constitute much more than just stats, this isn't the same thing as my experience in sngs where stats tell almost everything you need to know.

As far as the hand itself, the pf re-raise is a little debateable I think, I prefer to just call personally since playing A-high OOP is a real pain in the butt.

Given the pf raise I think I"d be tempted to bet the flop since you really want to fold out a worse A or a small pair and as played your representing a big pair, why not keep it going and shut down if you get played back at?

I don't like the c/r on the turn, either bet out or just call and I don't even know if I like the call. Top pair is just not enough for me to want to lose my stack unless I have a pretty strong read.

Hope that helps.

Stack sizes?

I would probably bet the flop but seeing as you did not, I think your line is fine. I have a harder time finding hands that you beat calling though...
