I like the preflop raise better in an MTT and almost never make it in an STT, but read dependent plays aren't really what forums are for, and I can't really comment much on it.

After you see this flop, you can't get away from the hand.
The pot is much bigger than your stack, so you might as well push. Calling would look much stronger than pushing on that flop, so I think your best bet is to just stick the chips in the middle.
