Push pre-flop to try to push out big stack, or call and push/call any flop? Looking now I'm leaning towards push, but want to be sure...

I think it's ok in an $11. At a higher buyin I'd push after being raised because reraising to 1020 is saying you have AA or KK and pushing is saying you have AK or 99-JJ.

The way it went down preflop, I'd push on the flop. He's still calling with pocket tens or better and may fold AK or AQ.
