Clear check/fold? Nasty spot with set

Blinds: t30/t60 (9 Players) MP: 2,485
UTG+1: 4,435
MP+1: 9,694
MP+2: 7,985
CO: 3,808
BN: 3,025
SB: 3,453
BB: 1,939
UTG: 2,925 (Hero)
HIJ: 12/9 on 65 hands, no further reads
Preflop (90) Hero is UTG with J J
Hero raises to 150, 3 folds, MP+2 calls 150, 3 folds, BB calls 90
Flop (525) Q J 5
BB checks, Hero bets 395, MP+2 calls 395, BB folds
i`m not sure if i should be betting bigger here. WHats you guys think?
Turn (1,315) Q J 5 7
Hero checks, MP+2 bets 660, Hero folds
i dont know if this is a clear check/fold, have no further reads on the guy. I dont think i should be calling his bet because that would compromise my stack. If i knew the guy was an aggro i could check/jam the turn sometimes i guess
Final Pot MP+2 wins 1,315

Anyway, maybe i could check/raise the flop sometimes and change the play to make it tougher for the villain to play?

What you guys think? Any better ways to play those spots?

Thanks for feedback

Very hard to call here without a heart after MP calls your large flop bet. You could be checking to trap him. Good disciplined fold I think
