Default NL25 Hero lets AA go on turn; scary board

Guessing letting the hand go on the turn is standard.
What about calling the raise to 6 on the flop? Spew?
Didn't have a lot of respect for villain, he was handy with his chips.

Your comment?

Party Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
6 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $0.5</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $1.5</font>, 3 folds, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($4.6, 3 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $3</font>, BB folds, <font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $6</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($16.6, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $5</font>, Hero ?

EDIT
Seat 2: Villain ( $28.39 USD )
Seat 3: Hero ( $27.78 USD )

Villain is VPIP% 50 [What I meant by handy with his chips.

Villain showed <font color="white"> KJ </font> [in white], which is why I was confused enough to post for advice.

Stacks? Also, I donīt really get your read. Does it mean he likes to bet a lot without a hand?

I wouldn't mind a check behind on the flop. The board is drawless/ we're in position. I think smaller pps are more likely to bet/call a turn bet than a flop bet. I think this also lets us off cheaper when villain has a queen.

Hi could one of the old hands explain in a pithy way the effect of the depth of stacks on this situation? Am guessing too much to lose on a marginal situation?

At this point you would like to see a showdown for as little as possible. Your hand has no real chance to improve and you're not comfortable. If one of you is short, you can consider pushing to just get to showdown. If the stacks are larger, you are not only considering the $5 turn bet, but how much more you are going to be asked to call on the river. You probably asked yourself that same question when you got minraised on the flop.

When I first read the hand I thought this was 50NL and villain was a half-stack. Against this type of villain I would call his smallish turn bet as he probably shows up with alot of garbage here a decent % of the time. Let him bet his smaller pairs for you. Call river if he bets small again.
