Default ($27) Follow my read?

Getting used to 8-tabling at the $27s. Approximate thoughts in bold.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed) converter

UTG (t2115)
Hero (t1690)
MP1 (t3010)
MP2 (t1670)
CO (t1890)
Button (t695)
SB (t1800)
BB (t630)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls t50, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t200</font>, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t350</font>
Did he just limp-minraise me? This couldn't be more aces. Can't really fold getting these odds though. I hope i either hit a monster or totally whiff this so I can happily get away from it.
Hero calls t150.

Flop: (t775) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

UTG checks,
Crap. I still think he has aces, so I don't want to push into him, and any bet commits me.. maybe see a turn? god i dunno
Hero checks.

Turn: (t775) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t1765 (All-In)</font>

Son of a [censored]. He must have aces, but can I fold this, but.. oh hell this sucks.

Bleaaaagh.

3 questions:

1) Raise preflop good? (i suspect it's ok)
2) Check flop good? (i suspect it's not)
3) Now what? (I have a huge read that he has aces, but if I'm wrong then i'm the world's biggest donkey. This is like folding KK preflop)

BLAAAAGH.
