Default Critique my bust out from this tourney

Get moved to a new table. Sitting in top 20 with 60 players left. 200/400 blinds.

Me (on the button): 12,000
UTG: 20,000

UTG calls 400.

I look down at J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]-T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Fold to me. I raise to 2000.

UTG calls.

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]-8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]-2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

UTG bets 400.

I raise to 2000.

UTG raises 4000.

I push. UTG calls.

UTG flips A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]-K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Turn: K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

River: blank

Since it was a new table, I had no read on UTG. His pre-flop play had me a bit confused. But I put him on A-Q. I figured AK, AA, KK, QQ, JJ would re-raise (no?).

His minimum bet on the flop screamed weak to me. I seriously doubt he would play a flopped set with min bet. So I think he missed on the flop. I put in a nice re-raise to find out.

His min re-raise told me he didn't have anything and was angry at my re-raise. That's why I pushed. I had top pair with an ok kicker and jack high flush draw.

Is my thinking flawed here? Is this not a tourney move? I'm used to cash games.
