Did I bet too strong?

I've been playing microstakes (cash) for a few weeks now. My general pattern is to win lots of steady pots and then make a big loss on hands like these, although I am still in profit overall.

I had only been at the table for 13 hands and only been involved in 1 other hand, so I don't know what my table image would have been. The other hand I played was against the same player. I raised pre-flop with JJ, was called. Hit the the set, raised, and was called. Checked the turn and bet the river, which he folded.

Should I have been suspicious? I thought he was chasing a flush, straight or 2nd pair so I tried to make it too expensive for him to stay in.

Was there anything I could have done here? Should I have bet so much on the turn? Any thoughts?

Thanks.

    Thanks.  It works in IE.

    Strangely enough, in other browsers it appears to paste fine, but then messes up when published.
    In IE, it looks wrong when you paste (no tables, suits not shown), but then publishes correctly.
