Default So I turn top two pair but shoudl I be scared?

Stars 6 max, 50NL. Villain has 50 and hero covers. UTG is a fish and call station who's been doing all kinds fishy crap including paying off three value bets with bottom pair. This person is continually rebuying to 30 and, lucky for me, is winning some pots against the rest of the table.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB ($47.25)
Hero ($89.70)
UTG ($33.15)
MP ($48.50)
CO ($14.50)
Button ($49.25)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7, Q.
UTG calls $0.50, [color=#666666]1 fold</font>, CO calls $0.50, [color=#666666]1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: ($2) 6, J, Q [color=#0000FF](4 players)</font>
SB checks, [color=#CC3333]Hero bets $1.5</font>, UTG calls $1.50, CO folds, SB calls $1.50.

Turn: ($6.50) 7 [color=#0000FF](3 players)</font>
SB checks, [color=#CC3333]Hero bets $6</font>, UTG folds, SB calls $6.

River: ($18.50) 4 [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font>
SB checks, [color=#CC3333]Hero bets $12</font>, [color=#CC3333]SB raises to $24</font>, Hero calls $12.

Final Pot: $66.50

I bet the flop because UTG has been just GIVING me money with any two cards and my thinking is if I can fold the remainder of the field, I can continue to value bet him. If not and I remain unimproved, I can shut down.

Im glad you included your description of UTG but why havent you given us your read of the acutal villain???

also, against an unknown I play it exactly the same way given your flop bet reasoning.
