Default $11-Impatient at the bubble?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) converter

Hero (t4595)
BB (t5910)
UTG (t1450)
Button (t1545)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t375) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t400</font>, Hero calls t400.

Turn: (t1175) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to t5285</font>, Hero...

Thoughts:
Preflop: Getting 3 to 1.
Flop: My c-bets have been either getting called or raised. I thought he might check behind. With that big bet, I think there's a good chance he might be bluffing at it. He's recently taken down a lof of pots without showing his cards.
Turn: Decent card for me. I'll c/r. If he has a pair less than aces (he might, he was in the BB,) he might give it up here.
Turn push: Oh damn. He's probably got Ax now. If he is holding just an A, I still don't think I have the pot odds to call. But he's pushed about 1/3 the hands he's had, and had a lot of people fold on him. This could be a full out bluff.

Should I have just passed preflop to the big stack? Passed to his flop bet? What a mess.
