Did I Suck Out???

Here's an interesting hand that happened. The other player was a rock, so I knew he had a good hand. Do you think that my play was incorrect? My table image at the table was tight-aggressive. Here it is:


Texas Hold'em $2-$4 @ Full Contact Poker

Seat 1: Player 1($135 in chips)
Seat 2: Hero (me) ($128.70 in chips)
Seat 3: Villian ($72.10 in chips)
Seat 4: Player 4 ($169.85 in chips)
Seat 5: Player 5 ($86 in chips)
Seat 6: Player 6 ($158.80 in chips)
Seat 7: Player 7 ($74 in chips)
Seat 8: Player 8 ($14.90 in chips)
Seat 9: Player 9 ($52.40 in chips)
Seat 10: Player 10 ($76.10 in chips)

ANTES/BLINDS HERO posts blind ($1), VILLIAN post big blind ($2).

PRE-FLOP
Everybody folds to me and I have QcJc, since I'm up against a rock, I raise.

HERO bets $3, VILLIAN bets $4, HERO calls $2.

At this point I have him on Big Noises (AA-JJ) or Big Slick or AQ, which is why I just call his raise.

FLOP [board cards 3C,AH,KC ]

HERO bets $2, VILLIAN bets $4, HERO bets $4, VILLIAN bets $4, HERO calls $2.

Here, I have him on AA, KK, or AK, but I figure I have 11 to 12 outs or so (not including the Ace of clubs, as I would give him a boat or quads). Is ramming and jamming wrong here?

TURN [board cards 3C,AH,KC,9H ]HERO bets $4, VILLAIN bets $8, HERO bets $8, VILLIAN bets $8, HERO calls $4.

RIVER [board cards 3C,AH,KC,9H,5C ]
HERO bets $4, VILLIAN calls $4.

SHOWDOWN
HERO shows [ JC,QC ]
VILLIAN mucks cards [ AC,KS ]

I'm not exactly sure if rammin and jammin the turn was a good idea or not. I need some more time to work on the exact odds. It worked out this time, but I'd like to know if I was correct or not to play it this aggressively.

Keep on keepin' on
