Default Post-flop play of AQ from EP

Party Poker 1/2 (10 handed)
Hero has A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and is EP1

Hero raises, MP2 3-bets, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls, Hero calls

I don't have a great read on MP2 at this time, but he seems tight-aggressive

Flop(10 SB): T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB checks, Hero checks, MP2 checks

This is where I struggle with unmade (AK, AQ) raising hands from EP. If I'm reraised PF and miss the flop, I turn passive and check to the raiser because I don't want to be raised. I realize that I just gave straight and flush draws a free card, though I was expecting MP2 to bet (in which case, does MajorKong kill me for thinking 'fold'? [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img])

Turn(5 BB): A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB checks, Hero bets, MP2 raises, BB folds, Hero calls

So we both don't like the flop, but like the A. He seems to have AA, AK, or AQ here, so I call rather than 3-bet as it seems the best I can do is chop.

River(9 BB): 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Hero checks, MP2 checks
