cash game hand

sorry, this was one of the 1st hands I played at the table. Therefore no reads on the villain. So I just went with a default read of what the average guy would do. For the record, I"ve purposely left out my river decision. I didn;t want to post if I"d folded or called.
My thinking was obviously I"m never folding to a flop cbet. His range for cbet is way too wide and its a very good flop for a pair of 9s.
The turn completes the flush draw and is a queen. He bet reasonably big again. I figured if he had a flush, given my show of weakness, he wouldn"t bet so big with a flush because there;s no value in that. Also, if he had a queen he had to worry about me having a flush. So again, it doesn"t make sense for him to bet this big even with a queen.
I did infact call the river as I felt the 7c changes nothing. Again he bets biggish. I"ve shown no interest at all, and therefore my feeling was he was trying to get a better hand to fold with bigger bets. I called and he flipped over AKo so I took it down.
The reason I"m posting though is to ask whether people think my reasoning was sound or abit dodgy
perhaps in hindsight I should"ve folded turn to a bet given I have no reads on this guy? I do however, as opposed to someone else who posted, find the play is more aggressive in 25/50 then 10/25. Alot more 3betting and double/triple barrelling

Once u check the river - this guy is v/betting a lot of hands tht have 9"s beat. With no info I think its a fold.
Edit: On the turn obv
AMRN:
Once you have decided to call on the turn, you have already made your decision to call on the river - that 7 changed nothing, so if you thing you were ahead on the turn, you must still be ahead.
Have to say though, I"m not sure why you called on the turn. TBH, I don"t really like the call on the flop either - I"m usually raising here to find out where my medium pair stands.

I hate r/f"n flop as well btw. I think peeling on the flop and re-evaluating turn is best option against an opponent with no reads
